How many student teachers does it take.... 11/16

The really fun part of the day was after lunch I meet up with Jeannette, Eric, Mel, Regan, and Alicia. Eric and Jeanntte had just been told that they had to sub in library, but they had never been to library, and all the sub notes said was Read “Lion vs. Rabbit” and fill out booklet. So having no sub notes and the book that we had to read was nowhere to be found. We all got together and made a plan. I had been to library once, so that is how we planned the 30 minutes. So we all chipped in to help out. The first class happened to be the one Regan & Alicia were student teaching in, so they lead that class. The plan that we came up with was, one person would read the story to the students (Mel), then they would check out books, and then we would fill out their books. It was what happened first, middle, and end of the story (me).

I feel that overall both lessons went really well. They were put together moments before the students walked in the door. The part that I did not like was that the sub-notes were one sentence. The book was not where it said it was, and there was no one who really knew what was going on… But the six of us were able to work together and make a plan. We got both classes in and out, (for the most part on time), and the kids were really good at helping us. We did let them know that we were student teachers, and were are learning to be teachers, so if we do it differently it is cause we are still learning. 


I one things that I learned about today was that when I make sub notes I am going to make sure that they are very detailed. I would make copies of what the students are going to use, and copies of the teacher pages so the sub has something to follow. Overall it was a really fun interesting experience.
