Week 6 Assignment: The way I want things to be daily

By getting myself and my child on time I am able to do what I have to do without forgetting anything and am able to be prepared for anything the day will bring. I can call in on days that I am not able to attend because of certain reasons and I will always have a plan laid out in front of me so that I can function well enough. Because I am overwhelmed with obligations I have to take it one step at it time with patience and a plan to succed.

Week 6

Today I came to Mr. Mize class. He was almost finish reading the book as I walked in. This book had something to do with time.... He asked the class " Did you learn anything about time?". The class really did not respond which surprised me because usually after a story the class would usually have alot to say. After the class did not respond it was time to go to lunch. Mrs. Siegmnud came to visit us during this time and she observed that there are not many male teachers here by looking at the staff poster in the lunch room.A story that Mr.Mize told me once and I never understood why so many people have a negative point about a male wanting to be an educator. I think that it's great to see that there are males that want to eduacate and show that this is just not womans' job... which it is not... many see that way. I see teaching as male and female job. As long as you show the childeren that you care about them and that they succed with thier education they will admire you and never forget you.

This week when I came I in surprise that we were having a Fire Drill. It took me back to my Elementary years. This morning I knew that it was a State Tornado Warning but, I did not know that we would have a fire drill. I'm assuming that whenever there is a tornada warning that it is required by the school to have a Fire drill just in case the emergency emerged. During this fire drill the childeren didn't seem as serious about this as I was when I was in school ( at least from what I can remember). Things have changed so much in the Elementry school. Back in my day there was no talking... and we were actually scared of what might happen. I guess now it's not such a big deal. I was just very surprised at the noise level and the smiles that I saw on the childeren faces. I guess I can that it was better to see them happy than crying about what might, or could happen.

This week was very interesting because the kids did not want me to leave. It's like they wanted me to be thier everyday during thier classes. But during the time that I was there the kids had "Spanish Class" and they did not seem happy about it. I could see why. I mean I would be happy learn spanish for free. I talked to Mr. Mize about it and he said that it was because some of the kids have a hard time understanding what is going on. I see that the woman tries hard to get the childerens attention with posters and bright colors but it just doesn't seem to work. I think that if the Spanish teacher would say English first word, and then the Spanish word the kids would be more into it. For example the show "Dora" always says the Hello then she says "Hola". I think it will run the " Brain Train" a whole better to get them to understand Spanish itself.
