By crazy coincidence there is a first grade teacher at my new school who will be taking a maternity leave this winter. In Germany, a woman can take up to three years for maternity leave while her position is held for her. I was hoping that something like this would happen, so I applied for the leave position as soon as I got home. Right now it is posted as 8 months with the possibility of being lengthened. Wouldn't it be great if she decided to take all three years??? I know there are a few other applicants, but I am hoping that my experience of having taught first grade for the past three years will bode well for me. I think that the principal and director will interview applicants and they would also like to see sample lessons.
Fingers crossed!
