Trials and Tribulations

A bit of a shaky first full week. In part, it is communication stuff. What I think a lot of teachers don't fully appreciate is that the special ed teachers in their class feel, at least I do, a bit like the students, you have to get used to a whole new teacher. While it is a co-teaching model, the classroom is still theirs. Their rules, their set up of expectations and routines, and I admit, I am a little tentative in new situations, actually a lot tentative. The week ended very positively with both of my colleagues, so I expect that since we're working through the kinks, the coming week will be better than the last one.
