Week 7

I am entering into my 7th week of Student Teaching. Holy COW. It seriously has flown by. That means, that at the end of this week, I am half done. In 7 more weeks I am able to get a teaching job. A real job. Something that I want to spend the rest of my life doing. Today, Logan and I spent a good 1.5 hours sponge painting paper plates for tomorrow. The students have already written stories, but just need to transfer them to paper plates...also, I tried to make one...and I used like a marker marker...and I think they need to use sharpies, because marker was impossible and it bled all over. So...don't judge my picture, but look how cute. I also had to clue 40 pumpkin seeds in the middle of all these plates. They were suppose to write about a seed that is magic and turns into something. My story was about the seed...which was found and when planted it turned into a dog which was named Diesel. Minus I accidentally spelled it Diesl on the plate. Woops. If I ever had a dog, that is what I would name it. Incorporating real life into my stories. Wooohooo. Also, we are going to put green ribbon on and make a sweet bulletin board, so the green ribbon will be vines and we'll connect the pumpkins like they are in a patch!

 Excuse my horrible handwriting...my marker bled. Also, my pitiful quality photo. This is my Blackberry.

Third graders better enjoy. The stories they wrote are HILARIOUS.

Student teaching is fun, but I am excited to have my OWN classroom. Where the kids are mine, and I can teach them how I want, and we can do projects that I invent.
