Yep, thats right. The post title was asked by one of my adorable 8 year olds on Friday afternoon. The best part is that three of the kids and I got into a big arguement about the right answer for a solid fifteen minutes while the rest of the kids gathered their stuff for the bus :)
Week 2 was absolutely crazy. Monday my cooperating teacher was gone so I taught the whole morning of reading and all the in between activities while the sub only taught math. Tuesday we had DIEBELS (an Indiana state required test). My teacher was out of the room all day testing kids. I on the other hand taught reading all morning while the sub did absolutely nothing. Finally later on she taught math. Technically they have to hire subs when the teachers do this kind of testing, but honestly I felt like I did most of the teaching that day. Wednesday we had a snow day! Thank goodness for that. Thursday and Friday the kids were very squirelly. This week turned out to be so tiring that I fell asleep at 8 pm on Friday night! That hasn't happened since middle school....
Hopefully next week will turn out to be great. Monday I'm doing a big MLK lesson where we read a book about him and talk about his speech. Afterwards the kids will create their own simplified version of his speech. We'll see how it turns out.
