my new job.

now that i'm here in dubai, i've gone back to the classroom and am teaching 4th grade.

having my own classroom after so long in the tech department has been quite a change, but it's full of challenges and rewards, and it feels like it was definitely the right decision.

here are a couple pictures of my classroom before the munchkins arrived.








the school has a lot of cool resources and spaces as well. like this olympic size pool.


and this huge track and soccer field.


and doesn't every school have a drone aviary?


this is the front entrance.


as professional development for all new teachers across the organization, we were invited to the atlantis resort on the palm for a day of networking and learning before school started.

it was definitely pretty there!


lots of people were coming!


um, just some blown glass in the lobby. maybe you've heard of the artist? #chihuly


the schedule for the day.


loved these glass dividers and how they reflected in the sun.


subtle.


also in every hotel, yes? stay in the hotel and visit the aquarium and water park for free.
#whatadeal


seriously, this place is crazy.


the pool isn't half bad either, i suppose.


and really, given the crowd i expected lunch to be mediocre and, in fact, it was quite delicious!


every job has its ups and downs, but i'm loving dubai and all of it's new challenges!
