Another Boring Post

So there still isn’t too much going on in my life. I am continuing to do my student teaching at SFC.  Over the past four weeks I have observed, graded papers, taught Spelling & Handwriting, and subbed in the Staff Day Care (the nursery) for two days.

During my two day stint in the nursery I discovered that I chose the right major.  The children in the nursery were not horrible, but they did lack the skills necessary for intellectual conversation.  I was very excited when I was able to return to my third and fourth graders.

As I stated I have taught spelling and handwriting.  Next week I will begin teaching third grade reading.  I am looking forward to teaching; however I am not looking forward to my first two stories.  It is just my luck that the first two stories I have to read are about snakes.  If anyone knows me, they are aware that I have a phobia of snakes.  Needless to say I am not looking forward to those first few lessons.

Tomorrow there will be no school because the teachers are having a staff development day.  SFC is working on getting out WASC accreditation.  Our development day will be focusing on things that we need to work on for WASC.

Today third and fourth grade are celebrating Valentines Day.  We will be walking to McDonalds for our party.  :)
