I will sub for the first time today! I am nervous and excited. On one hand, I may always be nervous to sub in someone else’s classroom. On the other, it is for one of the kindergarten classes that I’m in every week. Mrs. P said it will be an easy day. I’m hoping that the kids agree with that! Also, I know if I really need help, Mrs. W is right next ( Read more... )

Saved by the bell! My language arts mentor set up presentation on Chile so the student could be more acquainted with what they were reading for warm-ups. It consisted of a picture walk while she explained the pictures. She used a lot of vocabulary words (previous and cross subject). I thought it was fantastic! Her presentation took the majority of ( Read more... )

It feels as though it’s been a busy week even though I had the majority of it off. However, I do know that I spent most of the week resting because I was still sick. I’m feeling a lot better now. Tomorrow I get my test results back and I’ll be trying to set up practicum hours for my new class ( Read more... )

My new class requires that I be in a Language Arts setting! BOOYA! I love language arts~! So really, all I have left is Language Arts, Social Studies, and Math and Science (they go together). I’m excited for two reasons. One, I get to work with two of my friends! We scheduled our classes together so there will be little to no stress for me. It’s ( Read more... )

My final is all turned in. I have three classes and student teaching left! YAY! I am so excited. In other exciting news, Cherri finished my rainbow scarf! It looks amazing. I can’t wait to wear it. The only thing from stopping me from wearing it now is sickness, which I don’t want all over my awesome scarf ( Read more... )

Considering changing the layout for Rayjah and revamping some sections. I want to do more with it. So I need to figure it out. I’m thinking of making and Alvin (from Tales of Xillia) layout. We’ll see how that goes, since I was also contemplating a Harvest Moon layout ( Read more... )

Scraps is a doodle bug! I swear he does whatever he wants whenever he wants. It’s been such an odd change to have a puppy again! I feel quite old chasing him around, and I don’t know if that’s because I’m genuinely old or because I have never had any stamina. But fifteen years ago it seemed to be much easier. He got me up half an hour early this ( Read more... )

I’ve been really tired the last few days. I don’t know if it’s from chasing a puppy around, being around sick mentors, or from the fact that I really don’t take breaks like I should. I don’t necessarily have a lot going on but I am much busier than I used to be. I really like my current situation, and there’s little that could make it better ( Read more... )

I worried about my action plan. A classmate asked for an example before I could. I’ve done action plans before! I feel a lot more confident about it now; I just need to get confirmation on what standards I need to use (Arizona or California). I was also awesome enough to think in advance and was able to ask one of my mentors tons of questions about ( Read more... )

Ah, one paper down, two to go! I have no idea what I’m doing on this demographics paper, but I’m going to give it my all. It confuses me and I feel silly for having to ask eighty million questions. I suppose the best thing is to make an attempt! I think I know what I need to do though. At the very least, I’ve been at the school for a few weeks so ( Read more... )
