The new jerb

The job, as previous mentioned a few times here, is at a high school right around the corner from my house. Stephen actually graduated from this high school.

I am officially the new ED/LD special education teacher for a study skills class, and two co-taught math classes.

On December 3rd, I become a Lafayette Ram.

I'll let you know more about the job, as the time nears, and I actually find out more about what I'll be doing.

Out of the mouths of babes

A conversation I had with a 3rd grader the other day:

One of my little friends was talking with his peers, and I walked up. He looked at me and said, "umm..Mrs. Cooke. Have you ever seen a show. I think it was a long time ago. Like in the 60s or something. Have you ever....Do you know the show "Full House"?"

As he waited for my answer, I died laughing inside. And managed to say, "yes, I have seen that show before."

To which he replied, "Really? Wow." (just picture the amazement on his face)

Who knew, that I would make a little guys day by having watched "Full House" before!?
