These past few days have been super busy,but I am lovin' it! My reading unit has been going well. Today we went over the story elements and vocabulary again. Tomorrow we will be focusing on comparing and contrasting the story with an older story and the test will be Monday. The kids seem to enjoy it. Today and tonight is the Spring Musical/ Arts Festival, so grades 1-4 sang 3 songs each today at the end of the day. They did a great job! Tomorrow is an Earth Day assembly too! My students have been doing well and it seems like they like having me around. I really am going to be sad next Friday...but that's a whole week away! So much good things to come in this next week, I can't wait!
Today we had a field trip to Giant. I was kind of wondering what we were going to do at the grocery store but it was actually really great! We had two ladies give us a tour of the produce, organic, dairy, meat, and bread sections to talk about the food pyramid and nutrition. The kids got samples, a coloring book, and a book of healthy recipes. Because of the field trip we were only at school for Reading Skills and Math Skills, but I've pretty much taken over all of the teaching which is such an awesome experience! I'm having a great time and I love being with the kids everyday. It's going to be hard leaving them!
This week has definitely been so rewarding! I love seeing my kids everyday and working with them on a continuous basis instead of touch and go when we were only there one day a week. Mrs. Doane has me doing a good bit of the teaching, but also has me doing small group work with a math bunch that are all having trouble with the multiplication we are doing. Usually we work together during math but today they asked if they could stay in during morning recess and work with me. I have been using some games and fun ways to teach it with them so that it doesn't feel like punishment but just something extra. Apparently they really like it! Mrs. Doane told them they could stay in and then a couple of the other students wanted to also even though they weren't having trouble. We had a good little group and the students who understood were able to help the other students grasp the concept. It was amazing to watch and we all had so much fun! I can't wait to go back tomorrow and next week too!
I am loving this week! I really enjoy being able to see my students everyday. Mrs. DuBosq has had me doing a good amount of teaching in both small and large groups. I taught a literacy lesson yesterday and was observed by my supervisor. The lesson went really well. It was encouraging to have the students so engaged during the read aloud and then eager to share their responses with me about what they were going to write about in their journals about the story. I really enjoyed working at the writing center with them. I have been able to watch them improve so much from the beginning of the semester. The students are getting more comfortable with me teaching more and more lessons. It's just been a lot of fun! It's crazy that tomorrow is already Friday and there is only a week left!
This week's been really good, and incredibly busy. As I mentioned earlier, I had an IEP meeting on Tuesday, a faculty meeting Wednesday and today was the teacher appreciation banquet and tomorrow I have another meeting with a parent. On top of that, Mrs. Funck was out for part of the morning so we had a sub which equated to me working with a reading group and doing a lesson on verbs (and discovering how to hook MY laptop up to the Promethean board). Then, SURPRISE! Mrs. Funck had to leave 45 minutes early so I had the kids for the rest of science and dismissal while a sub meandered in and wondered what in the world was going on and why were they there if this lady's teaching the kids?
Today, though, I finally had a lesson crash and burn. Mrs. Funck and I had debated earlier in the week if I should include a few work book pages in my lesson for today. I had thought no (because of time, and they weren't essential) and she said that the lesson included them so they had to be kept. Low and behold, we got to the aforementioned pages and the lesson just went downhill. I, personally, lacked on my comprehension of what the workbook pages wanted from me; but so did Mrs. Funck. I got to see her flexibility in action as she grabbed a book out of the cabinet, flipped a few pages and suddenly we had appropriate practice for our students to continue working on the concept!
The one thing that I'm really noticing is how much certain students struggle in certain subject areas. For instance, I have two incredibly bright girls who are enthusiastic and full of life during reading...but once we get to math they literally loose their glow and frown. It rips my heart out that I can't sit back there with them and catch them up on the math work to explain it individually in a way that helps them learn. It's so disheartening when two students just give up on the concept for the day.
But, I'm enthralled as my first week is coming to a close. I've learned so much about teaching just in one week. I'm ready to see what next week brings!
Today was a great day! I had one of those days in which everything went really well. I planned and taught a fun science lesson on liquids and the students were amazing. They were focused and interested and I held the attention of first graders for nearly one hour. They answered my questions, their curiosity was piqued and they truly learned what I attempted to teach them. They enjoyed guessing which items would float and which would sink by giving thumbs up and thumbs down. When the entire class began chanting “float, float, float”, I knew I had conquered the lesson.
My cooperating teacher has such insight into her students, and by selecting this topic for me to teach, she allowed me to have a great experience. Additionally, my supervisor came for a visit and he and my teacher were very pleased with my lesson, and each of them told me that I should be proud of myself. I am proud of my students and thrilled with this experience! I am anxious to go back to school tomorrow to find out what they remember overnight about the lesson. I certainly hope that they recall most of the information that I taught them. Like the ping pong ball in the bowl of water… I am floating, floating, floating! What a great day!
Today we took a field trip to the Oregon Dairy farm, which turned out to be a great time! It took up the majority of the day, which the students liked a lot. At the farm, the students went to different stations and learned about recycling in the Lancaster area, water pollution, soil, veterinary science, the food web and how one thing being eliminated from that chain can affect everything, and we took a tour of the barn. This farm is special because it uses cow manure which is stored and used to make electricity. We got to see their hundreds of cows being milked and even got samples of ice cream and chocolate milk. Although the smell was a little unbearable, it was a fun learning experience! Tomorrow, we’re going on another field trip to the Ephrata Cloister, which I’m also really excited about. At the end of the day, the class played a Jeopardy review game I created about the Middle Colonies. I get to continue this unit next week and get to make my own assessment, which I’m pretty excited about. Again, as each day passes, I become more and more confident with my teaching skills…it’s a great feeling!
This experience has been wonderful in getting me prepared for student teaching. This morning, I continued with the reading for the week and had a lesson to do with my supervisor observing. I thought the lesson went really well and he said it did too, and afterwards, he met with me to discuss how things went. We discussed how I could take it up a notch. Of course, after, I thought of plenty of things which could have added to the lesson, such as putting students into smaller groups to share their finished products rather than the whole class. Through this experience, I've realized why it is so important to reflect! Tomorrow is my first field trip as a teacher! We will be going to different sights in Lancaster city, which will be interesting because I know very little about it.
Today my placement went well. I wasn't too involved today, but I did help students with writing and math. Tomorrow my supervisor is coming and I am doing two reading lessons, one for him to observe and one later in the day. I'm kind of nervous because it's the last time he will be observing me and I will be receiving my final evaluation from him. I'm hoping I will do better with this lesson and use what he told me from my last observation to improve. I will be reading a poem to the students and going over vocabulary for a story they will be reading and the concept of author's purpose. It should be a good lesson and hopefully the students will stay engaged. I'm worried about friday excitement because I know I'm excited about the weekend as well, but I'm sure it will go fine.
Overall, today was a good day. I didn't have the opportunity to teach too much today. This time of year is very crazy for 5th grade because there are many programs for the students since they will be transitioning to middle school. There are many interruptions, such as guidance counselors talking with them about the transition and foreign language presentations. It is such an exciting time for my students, although I can see that many of them are nervous. There are also many placement tests at this time for middle school. They took the 4Sights Math test today, which is an indicator of their progress. They will be taking another math placement test next week.
Today, I experienced teaching a lesson in which many students leave for different ensembles, such as orchestra, band, and chorus. I was doing a reader's theater which required them to be in groups. I had all of the groups figured out, but the next thing I knew two students were leaving and then one came back. I had to alter the groups on the spot, which was challenging. Then, during the middle of Reader's Theater two more students came back so I had to place them in groups. This allowed me to feel what it is like to lose instruction time and having to make sure every student is caught up.
My week has been a bit hectic but I am loving every minute of it. It truly is a pleasure to get to see the students everyday. This whole week I have been working on phonemic awareness lessons with the letter "u" as well as going over the story "Messenger, Messenger." The students are responding well to my teaching and I feel very comfortable with these students. I must admit I am going to be pretty sad when next Friday rolls around. Next week I will be teaching a book the entire week. I am very excited for my opportunity to act as a substitute next week and teach an entire day! I am exhausted but it has been so much fun that I don't even care. I can't wait to see what exciting things happen next week.
I love being at school everyday!!!! I've gotten to know my co-op, students and even the other teachers much better! I feel my confidence growing everyday the more I teach and am given more responsbilities especially with responding to misbehavior. It feels great!!
Today we went on a trip to Hershey Gardens and I got to experience the whole kids bouncing off the walls in public and trying to keep them all together. Needless to say, very stressful and tiring but all of the kids thoroughly enjoyed it and the weather was perfect!
Im so pumped for next week! Ill be teaching math and desigining math centers, completing a country research project, running guided reading, and teaching all day for two days. Its a handful but Im so excited! It's going to be rough leaving all my kids next week!
Wow, teaching a full week is exhausting! I swear I come home everyday and am ready to collapse! Although it's tiring, it is also amazing. I have never felt so responsible for a class before than I do now! It is a great feeling to see the kids everyday and know what they have been working on all week. I have grown to enjoy the kids so much more this week than the entire semester. I finally feel a connection between myself and Mrs. Ober's class and it makes me excited to student teach in the fall! Lesson planning and implementing are getting easier and easier as the week goes on. It helps to build upon the lesson from the day before. Today I got observed in Math ... I swear I hate that subject a little more everytime I teach it (don't tell Professor Wile!) ... It didn't go too bad, but I find it so challenging to keep the gifted students busy, the lower level students from getting behind, and the stragglers on task. After Math I taught Unit and by the time the kids went to special I was drained! I'm excited for the last week though- making it throuhg the first week was the challenge, now it should be easier!!
Well it seems as though my post from earlier did not show! But I did actually blog on Thursday, haha. Hm, well .. 4 of my students are suspended for bullying. It made for a much quieter day and the students seemed to be in higher spirits. We had another class discussion on how bullying makes them feel and if they can prevent it in any way. I was really surprised with some of the ideas that the students came up with. Also, my teacher started a new rule that before the students are allowed to leave for the day, they must sat 2 nice things to one of their classmates. I would hope that the students would not turn this into a joke, so here's hope for next week! I also had a math lesson observed on Thursday, and it went really well. My teacher even trusts me enough to usually leave the room when teaching and I appreciate that she has confidence in me. I have been teaching math every time I went to placement since the second week, so teaching math was nothing new for me. I am finally really comfortable in front of the classroom and planning and prep doesnt take as long. My observation went really well and my supervisor told my teacher that I am more than ready to continue on to my next step in my teaching career! : )
I really enjoy going to the second grade everyday but is very exhausting. Planning lesson plans, doing other work, and getting up early takes a lot but I still really enjoy it. I taught several lessons which is great because I was able to try new things for each lesson. Its really helpful to actual teach the lesson to students to see how well your lesson goes and what needs to be changed. One highlight of the week was when the principal got slimmed at an assembly. He volunteered to get slimmed if the students raised enough money at the book fair. I thought this was a great incentive for the students because what young kid doesn't want to see their principal slimmed. Over all my week has been great and I am getting to know each of the students better each day I go in. This helps me to plan out my lessons and so far it has been a great experience.
So sorry that I didn't blog earlier! It totally slipped my mind!
Last week was great, yet so tiring! I love seeing the students everyday and seeing how one day they can be very calm and collected while the next they will jump around like jelly beans! It definitely keeps you on your toes.
I taught a lot last week and I feel more confident each time that I do. My teacher likes me to figure out on my own what does or does not work wit the students so I am able to put my own teacher personality into each lesson (although, I am still figuring out what exactly my teacher personality is).
This week should be great! Tuesday is my final observation. I am doing a literacy lesson on the suffixes -or and -er.
Haha I have to repeat what Janelle said even though it was the day after we were supposed to blog (oops!). After the social skills assembly on Friday the principal had one student from each grade as well as two teacher's 'slime' him (yes... the slime from Nickelodeon). The students had been looking forward to it ALL WEEK and kept asking me everyday if the principal was going to get slimed that day!!
The schedules have been very off... the students are preparing for their spring concert, which often means that social studies and science are omitted from the schedule.
This week was completely exhausting! I'm so glad it went well though. I had testing, a half day and two field trips to deal with. But it went really well. The kids behaved themselves on field trips and we didn't have any huge issues (which with this lively group is a miracle!). It was great to experience field trips. It's definitely something I was unprepared for. The kids know how to behave and generally do a good job. It's exhausting though. Even without the planning and lesson following it is exhausting to be hyper-aware of the students and what they are doing throughout the time there. I'm so excited for teaching full time next week!
These past few days have been super busy,but I am lovin' it! My reading unit has been going well. Today we went over the story elements and vocabulary again. Tomorrow we will be focusing on comparing and contrasting the story with an older story and the test will be Monday. The kids seem to enjoy it.
