Ok you know the sayings Nervous Nancy, Rachel Raincloud, etc. Well since I am trying to be more positive than my last post, I tried to think of a P name to go with Positive, and Percy was the first one that popped into my head. Probably because I read all the Percy Jackson books the weekend before school started and I LOVED them.
Anyway. I could tell you alllllll about my first week(s) as a student teacher, but to make it more interesting and less verbose I decided to do it in ACROSTIC POEM style since that was our LITERARY FOCUS for our third graders this week. Aren't you so lucky that I am so creative. Now, what should my word stem be...hmm...
T wenty-two adorable students :)
H ot as Hades. Our a/c is out for the third day now...in 101 degree weather outside. Awesome.
I officially now have a suckier schedule than my brother who is on a mission. Bed @ 9:30 pm, Breakfast @ 5:30 am baby.
R eally love my mentor teacher. She is very flexible and enthusiastic- perfect combination!
D efinitely did a double-take when I drove to school for the first time. Yeah, there's a ten-foot barbed wire fence surrounding the neighborhood across the street from my school. Enough said.
G otta admit- I LOVE the fact that it is an outdoor campus. Love the sunshine/natural lighting in all the classrooms and the fresh air every time we go outside, even if it is hot.
R eally had fun teaching my first science lesson today. We were weather scientists and collected temperatures from around the courtyard!
A ppalled by the fact that the kids only get recess twice A WEEK. Not per day, like most schools, but per week. Wow.
D rives 1 hour in commute each way. If it wasn't for audiobooks, I would be asleep at the wheel every day.
E very day as a teacher is an adventure! You never know what excitement (good and bad) the day can bring! Ha!
