sixth grade?

i was in england in sixth grade, i don't know how to teach sixth grade. i have no recollection of year seven english. at least that means i can't hurt these kids too badly.
and tuck everlasting? why must teachers constantly choose novels that i haven't read? it's good thus far though.
today was a bit of a stressful day. at some point i'll take a picture of my school, when i'm either not rushing in late or stumbling out from a long day just ready to catch the tram. we had an open house, and i also found out today that i'll be teaching 6th grade english almost right away. so carpet was put into the classroom this morning, and we literally moved furniture into the room 15 minutes before open house. so now i get to decorate the classroom since the teacher probably won't be here for at least a month. oh boy. i have the creative capacities of a cow.
and i still have yet to actually go into prague. i'm so lame.
