Today felt more like a ride at an amusement park than a day spent in a classroom. What was I thinking when I moved to the top of the book spindle? I had to hang on pretty tightly! Speaking of amusement parks...the class had a sub named Mrs. O. She did a really cool thing to get the kids attention that sounded like a roller coaster! Maybe they can teach it to Mrs. Bond. It looked like they really enjoyed it!
They are making beautiful wreaths made out of plastic baggies. I noticed one of the boys left a lot of the baggies under his desk, but Mrs. O picked them up. No matter what type of classroom I am in, I am always noticing how the teachers are always so helpful. I did notice a lot of the kids helping Mrs. O too. Being a sub must be hard, but having students that are willing to lend a hand really helps!
I really like watching the video that Mrs. O played this afternoon on the transfer of energy. My favorite transfer is food energy! I found some cookies in the Teacher's Lounge tonight. Those calories transferred into energy to help me fly back to the classroom.
Tomorrow the kids have extra time in art because they are working on clay pots. Mr. Miller, the art teacher, left a note for Mrs. Bond to let her know of the adjusted time. How neat is that! I hope they make cool things and have fun!
One thing that I would really like from the students is letting the kids find me on their own. I know they are super excited to show people where I am, but it makes it more fun when kids find me individually. I love to see their searching eyes and then their smile when they do find me.
Finally, I have to give a shout out to my email buddy, Maddie! She emailed me a lot last year, and she has been emailing me again this year. What a kind and welcoming young lady! She just told me that she is going to be published in a book! I hope she will let me know when it comes out! Mrs. Bond is so lucky to have such wonderful students each year!
