Mrs. Unsworth has gradually been increasing the amount of time she is teaching and responsible for Team Awesome. In February she will be accountable for planning, teaching and supervising most of the day. At first the idea had me a bit worried and anxious but Mrs. Unsworth is proving that she is more than competent and ready. And Team Awesome is delighted to have her in class and ask for her when she is elsewhere. You would think that having someone else teaching would free me up to hang out and eat bonbons in the staff room while reading a trashy magazine but not so. I seem to be as busy as ever and am managing to attend to tasks that seldom seem to get done. Having an extra person to help meet the needs of the children has been a boon and not only is Team Awesome enjoying having Mrs. Unsworth, but I am thankful for her energy and cheerful demeanor every day.
