Thoughts

Okay yesterday was another day without my field instructor at my practicum. I pretty much worked with a kindergarten class all day and helped out the teacher. Which if I can add this particular teacher teacher is an older lady thinking about retirement probably soon. Well she like stresses out too easy and feels like she loses control of the class a lot. I am like, "HELLO" they are kindergartners you can and should be able to walk them down the hallway for music without yelling "HELP ME!" That day I almost laughed she made it sound like she was being assalted by her class or something in the hallway! Then towards the end of the day when I was thinking about leaving a third grade teacher called my room. He reported that one of his who was having issues following the rules for me to see. Well, I went to get him and talk to him and we did for about half an hour, but he did not really coporate with me. This was hard for me and really my first one-on-one like that without my field instructor, so that was kind of difficult. I told the teacher and he was going to have the principal talk to him some more. Hopefully this part will get better with the time that I am there, I think it will!

Okay, well I am about to leave for campus for my first conversation group for the semester. That is if anyone comes! Then I am meeting with the girl from Costa Rica that is meeting with me to converse in Spanish for maybe an hour each week. Its great. . . I need to meet more Spanish speaking students like her. Then my last conversation group of the week will always be on Fridays at 4:30 - 5:30, what a sucky time! Oh well. . . I shouldn't complain its with international students which I like and I get paid for it!

The weekend plans are still open. . . except I think I am going to have a drink with a friend sometime Saturday night. That sounds nice. . . I am looking forward to it! I need to find a date sometime, thats what I need! HAHA
