My Cohort

This is my cohort in our matching Rodriguez Elementary School t-shirts provided so generously by our CMA.  Although you might think we're reppin being #2, what we are actually doing is our sign for when we agree with someone.  (Teacher trick #2 to keep class quiet instead of 30 little voices screaming, "Me too, me too, me too!")  Our CMA is responsible for the 12 of us during the summer and edits all our lesson plans and calms us down when we're all freaking out.  Casual Fridays are the best.

You know what else is the best?  The weekend.  Today is my first completely free day since I arrived in Houston since last weekend I had the grand idea to fly back to California for graduation.  I got to sleep in until 9 this morning.  Just taking it easy and finally getting my room and the hundreds of papers I have accumulated over the past week organized.  And of course, I'm lesson planning.
