Triumphs and troubles

Triumph: conferences were a success! I had a lot of positive interactions with parents and many had good things to say about the year. I knew I had to be prepared with things the students were doing well and things they need to work on. I was very happy with how they went and it feels good to be on the same page.

Troubles: this is my first year teaching 5th grade and I feel like I can't plan far ahead because I don't know what's coming up next and there is only enough time to prepare for about 1 week at a time. I know next year will be better since I will have taught the curriculum already so I have to keep reminding myself that if I can't plan for longer time chunks that is ok.
