Volunteering

I finally got to be in a classroom... the last time was in June! I felt like I was going to go insane if I wasn't around children - I had really missed it. I asked my CT if I could help every now and then and she, of course, said yes. I'll be volunteering Read More...

I got the e-mail!

...from TSPC saying I can send the form to get my license! Exciting. :) One week of summer classes out of the way... five to go! Read More...

Alrighty, so I turned in my work sample on time... thank goodness! I had some of the girls help me put the paper in those plastic covers, it was a crazy day. I was ready to go the previous night and print it out and put it together, but my printer decided Read More...

No Longer A Student Teacher

As I was pulling out of the school's parking lot today Jordin Spark's Tattoo was playing on the radio.... the line "you're on my heart just like a tattoo, I'll always have you" stood out. I'll definitely miss those rugrats and the staff. We left the 5th Read More...

Why?

If there is one thing I don't like about student teaching it's writing up the work sample. Who's going to actually read it other than our supervisor? It's not like TSPC sits down and reads through all the work samples they get. We should just be able Read More...

Almost There

The school year is coming to an end. We have 10 days left, one of which is field day... on a Monday, the last day of school. This term has gone by so quickly. I finished my 5 weeks of teaching full time on the 14th. It felt great! I can sleep now!! I Read More...

The Week That Was

What a week it's been. So my current CT is a sink of swim type of person, which means she hasn't helped me at all with my work sample, and she wants me to start on Monday. Earlier this week I gathered all my handouts to send to have copied, when I bumped Read More...

One Week Down

....and 9 more to go! Yesterday I had two of the girls make paper chains for our countdown. :) Yesterday I was asked a question that caught me off guard. A asked, "Miss G, I've been wondering, how do animals make babies? I mean, I know how people do, Read More...

Back In 5th Grade

Today was weird. It kind of felt as if I had never left. I guess that's good, right? We lost one student so there's only 27 now, one less makes a huge difference! After school I saw my 2nd grade CT and she gave me a hug, aww... I was just happy I survived Read More...

I keep reading over and over the darn state standards for 5th grade science and I cannot make up my mind as to what to do for my next work sample. I'm learning towards organisms... but what specifically? I'm not sure. The idea that I had, and that my Read More...

Happenings

Time's fun when you're having flies! My initial goal was to update at least once a week on all the happenings at school, but there was no time. It seems like this term flew by so quickly that I didn't have a chance to fully enjoy it. It was filled with Read More...

Only Three Days Left

Yep, only three school days plus a conference day that I have left with the little guys. It's so sad. I'm in denial that I'm going back to the older grades. I hate how just when I'm really getting to know the students and they're getting to know me, I Read More...

Another Snowy Day

Yep, and guess what ... I was observed by my supervisor! The children weren't that rattled up about the snow since they had already been outside and they were tired. I think the world has something against me. However, he said that it went well. He really Read More...

Only A Few More Days

This past weekend all I did was work on my work sample... and it's still not done. My supervisor went over it yesterday and I was feeling a lot better about it. What I'm not feeling so great about is the unit outline... I know what I want them to learn Read More...

Snowy Day

This past Sunday we woke up to a pretty layer of snow on the ground ... just a little though. But then it rained and melted. Today, the same day I was getting observed, it snowed again. It started around 7:30 a.m. I got out of my car at my placement and Read More...
