Parents surprise their students at school for lunch dates, to help in the classroom, or be a mystery reader. But it is less common for a teacher to get this kind of surprise! On Friday, my parents to the classroom for a surprise visit!! I couldn't have been more excited or surprised. They had perfect timing, we were just about to start an art lesson (the painting lines lesson from this post
Fun with Lines). Having the extra set of hands was extremely helpful but also fun for my mom and dad to get to interact with the kids!
My parents had only ever seen the outside of the school (but that's not nearly as exciting as the inside!) So, after the students went to lunch, we went on a tour of the school. Both of them quickly understood why I love my student teaching experience so much.
If their surprise visit wasn't enough of a gift, they gave the classroom/class a present - The Dr. Seuss set of Kohl's Cares books and stuffed friends!
Thank you mom and dad!!
This amazing mentor teacher of mine helped plan the whole thing! Thanks Erica :)
