Yesterday, we had another meeting with our site facilitator and we had to participate in a mingle activity where you say something about yourself that no one else knows. Wellllllll, I'm pretty open about alot of things so it was a bit difficult. But, I finally came up with something: Beauty and the Beast is my all-time favorite movie. Haha! It works! I love it! Anyways, we were talking about all of the stuff that we will be working on this fall semester and oohhhhh maaaaannnnn. Just thinking about all of that stuff makes me want a drink! But, it'll be okay. Stuff will get done. It's just trying to find the time that will be difficult.
So, in my class, as you all know that yesterday it rained. Well, we had a fire drill during the time it was raining at my school. Yeah ... I know. But, I thought the kids would go all crazy and be excited to go out in the rain. I was so wrong! They were complaining about how they don't like getting wet and that they want to go inside. Kids these days! I remember when I was younger the moment when it started raining I wanted to be out there! We'll have to fix this.
And, I got to work with a couple kids on identifying letters with initial sounds! Like "apple" starts with the letter "a" and they had to look through a box of letters 'til they found an "a". But, that was fun yet frustrating. I wanted to give them all the answer, which I ended up doing, but I had to keep my patience. I know the answer, and they don't type thing. I'm getting there. I'm learning that these little kids are just starting off at the very beginning of school and they need time. We'll get there together. :) Also, this company, callled Title 1, gave a stack of books to my class (which I believe that is what they are suppose to do), and my teacher said that I can get one to add to my library! Exciting stuff! If I remember correctly, I got a book from the same company during my first Practicum.
I won't have Practicum tomorrow because I have a workshop I have to attend to learn how to do an Analysis of Student Work for a small group of students. Prepare yourself for that next blog. I have a feeling that I will be suuuuuuper stressed and possibly drunk. ;)
