Here is a quick day in the life of Ms. Barnes-
5:30- Alarm goes off.
5:31- Go downstairs to pack lunch and eat breakfast.
7:03- Load bus and go to Davis HS
7:30- Arrive at Davis HS
8:00- begin sessions
4:00- after a long day of Curriculum & Literacy sessions, and a working lunch, we load the busses
4:30- arrive back at University of Houston
5:00- dinner
6:00- get back to work!
sometime between 11-2... max out, go to bed.
Busy busy busy!!!! It's been crazy, sometimes stressful, and oftentimes overwhelming. I have great people around me who make me laugh and keep things fun- which helps A TON. 1 week down, 4 to go.
Tomorrow I officially become Ms. Barnes! I apologize for being somewhat MIA recently... we all are literally living and breathing TFA. They even have their own language (90% acronyms) and time zone (Teach for America Standard Time, aka TFAST). I'm not even joking.
