The first day of school is over. I'm holding on to optimism for at least a couple more days. I am tired.
I don't know how anyone can teach without having the students active and involved. Today was a day of me standing in front of the class, telling them things they need to know. I think I need to find a different way to do it next year. I know that there is no way I could stand in front and tell the students what they need to know all semester long. I need them to take an active part in their learning. I need them to bear a little of the burden. Tomorrow I'll start giving them the opportunity.

Good luck. It seems like you either get used to be tired after teaching or it becomes easier as the year goes on. Either way it gets better.
