Valentine's Day~Day 11


MY VALENTINES!!!

Today was Valentine's Day and My first day to teach my reading lesson. I thought, "It's going to be crazy trying to get their attention on a holiday"... but they didn't do too bad. Actually they were very well behaved. I am going to quickly reflect on my teaching experience because I have an amazing husband who is waiting to take me out to dinner. The lesson went well. After going over the story with the students I told the teacher I was finished and she then started to ask the students a few questions about the story. She asked them, "Has anyone ever been bullied? If so, how did it make you feel?" All the students raised their hands to give their story. I really enjoy being able to see how the teacher asked questions to get the students to relate the story about the dog that was made fun of. Asking a question that the students could relate to really sparked their interest and their enthusiasm about learning.

Today we had our Valentines day party and many of the students gave me cards and candy!!! They made me feel so special :)




My flower one of the students brought me :) Some students are soo thoughtful ;)
