before bedtime thoughts

realizations/thoughts/goals all melted into one giant fondue of pedagogy

1. I need to talk less
2. I need to enjoy this more
3. It is overwhelming. I have to realize this, and not panic.
4. I want my students to smile in my classroom
5. I want them to enjoy being there
6. I want them to get to know each other.

rethinking and refocusing plans for the week. I have rearranged seats. we'll see how it goes tomorrow.

pictures will be up soon, so people can see what structures I'm trying to get going.
