There seems to be a lot of us hanging around, so I think we need a specific GTKY. A community builder, if you will!

I teach 9-12th grade (and through age 21) life skills SpEd. I have a twin sister with Down Syndrome and wanted to teach a class like hers ever since I was younger! I teach all subjects-they're with me all day except my planning period. We also leave the school a lot to practice job skills in the community.
I've been teaching summer school for SpEd students. It ends next week then I have a few days off before I officially start back on the 16th.
That's such a good question. Some of my students will understand and be really excited and others might not fully understand. I'm more trying to decide when to tell my aides, my principal, and some of the other teachers. I feel kind it will be so obvious if I end up getting bad sickness. Plus I already have to pee so often, they're really going to wonder what's wrong with me!
I don't miss the constant planning and paperwork.

When and how will you share your pregnancy with your students?I'm going to wait until they notice or hear about it. If I have an opportunity to do something cute I will. Last time I was teaching 3rd grade and one of the moms of m\y students asked (probably around 16 - 18 weeks (I barely showed) and so I decided to do hangman and the answer was "Your teacher is pregnant." It was actually really cute, they were so excited.

When and how will you share your pregnancy with your students? Not really sure. First time I waited after the Christmas holidays, 16 weeks or so, I didn't really show before the Holidays anyway. This time, probably somewhere in October.
What have you missed LEAST about school this summer? I'm on mat leave since June 2012 (I was suppose to go back to work 1 week before the end of the school year and I took an extention). I would say arguing with teens and some parents is what I missed the least for the last year.
I teach all subject areas.
What grade(s) do you teach?
This year I am looping to 5th grade with my students from last year.
When do you go back to school?
Teachers go back August 13th and students go back on the 19th.
When and how will you share your pregnancy with your students?
I'm not sure how I will share it with my students, but they have been bugging me since last year about having a baby so I'm sure they will be super excited. Probably at the twelve weeks since I am only five right now.
What have you missed LEAST about school this summer?
Having to set my alarm clock!
