Busy Day,... I am feeling sleepy

Our new academic year started a few days ago and there are lots of documentation that needs to be done and other work as well. Having new students is great but I miss my old class as well. I get attached to my students after being with them for a whole year. Suddenly, by the grace of God, I got 7 new online students. So, that's again extra work and my eyes get really tired. I am unable to spend as much time on MY Lot as I used to. Now I post just one discussion per day or 1 in two days. Hope everyone is having a good time.

All the best for your new academic year. . You will soon fall in love with your new class. What age group are your students?? I could not clearly understand about these online students. What kind of set up is it?

@Sheali ok. I loved my job as Montessori adult. The child stayed with me for good 3_4 years before graduating to elementary school. Now in Waldorf school the same teacher stays from Grade 1_7 teaching all subjects.

@arunima25 Ok.. That's nice.. I also teach in 3 different levels but the students are shuffled every year.. So I am not with the same students even if I teach the next level

@Sheali I do not always have something to post so when I do I post it. I try to answer when I get one of my posts and see if I answered all or not and if mistakes fix them.

When I only read 'tired' or 'sleepy' I think I can fall asleep
