First day of school

Emily enjoyed her first day of school. Mr. Gray will be her teacher, the first male teacher she has experienced as her primary instructor. He is from Australia and on exchange. He will leave at Christmas and the regular teacher will return.
Emily will be learning French. She is quiet excited about this. We lot a full list of her new words when she got home.
Grade 4 will be a challenge. But she seem enthusiastic.
I am going through my own version of hell. My hard drive crashed last week I must get it replaced. There have been several delays, making it extremely frustrating. That gray box is my lifeline and without it I feel paralyzed. I am tripping along,but it is tough.
I have not met all my students, but those whom I have spent time with seem good.
