I received one of the best compliments from one of the students yesterday, "You smell like a princess" I am not quite sure what that means but I am going to take it as a compliment!
Yesterday was my last official day with the teaching observation, although, I got invited back for my good-bye party with all the students.
The day was a crazy day with all the kids excited and full of energy. Some of them found it very hard to concentrate but when they did they really worked hard. I think it helps that Mrs. Becker put up a chart to map their positive progress and if they all do well they get a party.
It was more of the same as far as what we did for the day. We read books and wrote spelling word sentences. I really enjoy working with the students on the other subject areas because I learn something too! I have been really working hard at becoming more "teacherly" and I think I have been doing really well at it. I have been pretty good at keeping the students on task. I think that is the part that I do not like about it. It seems I almost feel like I am nagging the students when I tell them a few times in a row to do their work. I guess that is part of the experience and it seems like that is a small price to pay when working with such wonderful students.
