Third Grade

Before this semester, I mostly worked with Kindergarten. Then for field I was assigned 5th grade and found out that the teacher already had a student teacher. My next stop was 6th grade where this teacher also had a student teacher. I finally found a place to go, which was third grade. While I am a little dissapointed that I didn't get an older grade so that I could gain experience with them, I am so glad that I got the class that I got. I hope that I will be able to do student teaching at the same location.
The first day I walked into the school I was welcomed by every teacher I saw and even the principle. I felt like I was supposed to be here. Throughout the ten weeks, I became familiar with the teachers and even found some teachers I had when I was in school.
I was able to learn a lot from this experience. My field teacher was very helpful also. Even though she has been teaching for a long time, she wasn't a teacher who did all worksheets all day. She let the students move around and play games.
I am glad I was able to be at the school that I was at. It was an experience that I will never forget.
