No, I didn't quit.
Things are actually getting better! Term 3 was an absolute bastard, ending (on the last day) with another student death.
Hawaiian day in the last week of term was the highlight I can remember as well as getting fish in the classroom (that didn't last long!) and a visit from farm animals.
This term I am getting more support and feeling a lot better about things. The Domestic Goddess continues to support me in understanding what I am doing in the classroom by instinct. I am going to visit a mainstream prep class on Tuesday which will be great. The new AP is fantastic and has been very supportive. It has been great to get to know her better.
I finally feel like I am finding my place at the school but still needing to find my place as a teacher. It's a bit of a growing up process and growing up is never easy!
I'll do a student update soon.
Things are very busy this term with lots of paper to fill in, but I will try to update how the kids are doing soon.
