Sorry in advance guys, but today’s blog is going to be lame.
I’m so tired. I taught again all day today (and will be for the next 3ish
weeks)! It’s going really well, but there are just not enough hours in the day
to get everything done. It’s been all planning, teaching, running (after kids
and around the town and track), lifting, blogging, and studying.
The highlight of today was definitely writing our pen pals.
The kids were very excited. We spent all sorts of time talking about the class
we are writing to. The kids were awed by the fact that the other class is in
Nevada. “Is the other class gonna come visit us?” “Uhmmm, no.” We even pulled
down the map to point out where Carson City is. Just as we started writing, my
advisor came in to observe. All went well, and she even commented, “How long
have you been doing this? It seems like it’s been a lot longer than 3 days.” I
suppose no one told her that I was simply a bossy little girl who liked to play
school ;)
Here’s my favorite journal entry from today. The prompt was
to write a story starting with “As I was walking down the street….”
“As I was walking down the street I saw something Move. What
could it be? Maybe A car. maybe A bog. Or some beer. it is you elephant good
bye elphant.” (Why are there so many animals on the street? And although it’s
not an animal, beer is pretty wild too.)
Welp, it’s off to bed for me. Good night and sleep sweet my
faithful blog readers!
Peace, love, and tired eyes,
Jayna
