Just be yourself and stay confident.  I'm a 5th grade teacher and absolutely love it.  Stay firm and consistent with your rules and you'll gain their respect - as long as they know you respect them.  4th and 5th graders are old enough to understand what you want and are young enough to want to please you as much as possible.  You'll be fine!!!!  :D

Yes I did.  My mom passed away a year ago Sept.  She was 76, I'm 46.  I carried on with things like my mom did, taking care of my dad (who's 81), etc.  I cried everynight when I took the dog for a walk - I still do - everynight.  Sometimes it's not as bad as others but it's there.  I'm finding that after the 1st year, the numbness is wearing off but it still hurts very much.   Don't fight your emotions, just let them happen.  You'll feel better.  God Bless You.
