I blinked and last week ended! (Or so it seems) It was another week of great experiences (which always seems to be the case) Thanks to the four day “Spring Break”, we had a short week.
Thursday was a learning experience from start to finish for me that I won’t soon forget! My mentor teacher was sick and the school had a difficult time finding a sub to come in for her. On top of that, it was “preschooler’s and their parents visit kindergarten day”. So, there was a lot going on! As of 8:00 they still had not found a sub so a title teacher came to our room to fill in until one could be found. I taught the entire day which included leading the preschool visit day (I had not planned to lead this so I was a bit frazzled). The preschoolers’ visit included welcoming 10 preschoolers to our classroom, as well as their parents, doing a name cheer between the kindergarteners and preschoolers, and leading an art project! (An art project for ten preschoolers plus 19 kindergartners while 20 parents are watching!) But, the kids were awesome and the visit went exceptionally well. I learned how to think on my feet and go with the flow.
For the art, I paired two kindergartners with each preschooler. Together, the kindergartners helped their new preschool friend create a duck art project.
