So today I had three prep hours instead of my normal one. It was so nice because I have not been feeling well. I think I ate something that did not agree with me and needless to say the past 24 hours have been rough. I went home yesterday and slept for a little while, ate, and went back to sleep at around 9. Today has been much better and not having to teach two of my classes was a blessing from God. I was able to get a lot done and almost have all my planning done for next week. Which doesn’t seem to matter much because I rarely get done what I think I will. I try very hard, but sometimes I am finding that it is better to go with my students than try to cram in whatever lesson I wanted to. I can’t do this all the time, but sometimes it ends up much better than I had planned. I am slowly starting to get a handle on this teaching thing, it’s not easy. But I like it most days. 🙂
Just some thoughts..
On a side note, being a teacher on a small island has given me lots of time to think. and I am pretty sure I have come up with what I think is the next step. I am still praying because it is early in my time here. Church is Sunday was on using your spiritual gifts to their maximum and it was exactly the reminder/message I needed. So when the time is right, I will reveal to you the plan! Until then stay posted for more from Saipan..
