Welcome to our first class blog! Way back on Monday, the first day of school, my fourth period class came in, mostly on time. They found their way into seats at tables around the room, and we were ready to get started. 

The first thing we did was introduce ourselves. I introduced myself, and each student introduced themselves.

I passed out the course outline, and then we talked about materials, grading, homework, and rules. Students signed their understanding, and we moved on to the course syllabus. Before we could finish... there was an earthquake (that, tbh, I didn't even feel!). We didn't drop and cover, but everyone stayed nice and calm. Before we could go over the syllabus, Dr. McNally announced that we were evacuating so we made our way out to the field. 

It was HOT out there, but everyone was chill. We came back, and I don't recall if we did anything before the bell rang.

On the second day... 

We took a minute to do box breathing, and then we named our blog. 

After that, I collected course outlines and although most had them, a few were missing. 

We moved on to first day letters, which was our first writers workshop. Students settled in to writing their letters to me. I passed out copies of books SCHOOL TRIP for students to take home. 

That was it for the first couple of days. Such a good start to the year, y'all. We got this.
