yes, you should be taking a shower every day...

today we are teaching the first session of the "family living" unit aka human reproduction aka sex education. except we are forbidden to talk about sex. (interesting, i know.)  the focus is mostly on "the reproductive system," "changing bodies," and "adolescence," with some fun hygeine thrown in.


anyways, this is the day i've been dreading ever since i heard the words "fifth grade."

yup, it's days like today when i wish i taught 3rd grade, and also that I had better control of my laughter. because my team and i already can't stop giggling when we're together, throw in a power point with words like "scrotum" in it and forget about it. good lord, wish us luck...

1 good thing though is that, as a first year teacher, the nurse has decided i will just be "observing"...and hopefully not cracking up/blushing too much!!
