I started my second year of teaching last week. There are not words enough to express how much easier and less stressful it was. I didn't have to send a kid out of my room until the third day of school - it felt great! (only a slight amount of sarcasm intended there...)
In all seriousness, I did already have a reputation, so I had a lot less "proving mysel"' to do. We're moving right along. My freshmen have already begun grading TAKS short answers since they will be writing them for the first time this year. The sooner they start practicing, the better (I hope).
