Spanish Summer Camp

It's a possibility.... and I have a feeling it'll really help me gain more experience... and put interesting and FUN into the equation... it's summer, not School. We'll see. May 1st, a paper due, in Spanish about my experience and WHY I want the job. Now the next question, where will I stay?

Coming to a Close

So I have simply 11 teaching days left before the close of my responsibility and the beginning of something new yet again. It seems quite amazing. Spring break til the 31st, then teaching and class until the 11th. The 24th I am finished, and May 1st I will have a long term sub position to teach Spn 1 and 2.


This week, the assistant principal came into our classroom to observe me and it went quite well. After I got over the initial nervousness and the knocking over of the cesta of bandaids... It went well. I was glad he has seen me teach, especially with the possibility of openings in the district. He was great to talk to, and I received a lot of good, concrete feedback that will help me improve me teaching.
I have to continue to work on:
~Being student centered
~NOT talking over students
~Being consistent
~Planning in advanced, juggling the job of flexibility and preparedness
~Incorporating students voices in the class


It should be an interesting year. I'm curious to know where I will be, and how things will go. I really REALLY want a ESL class. Those guys are my babies!

And here is one more thing to think about: I LOVE this video:
