On my first week of student teaching I have only been there for 2 days so far. The snow doesn't appear too bad out of my front door, but it was -27 f with the wind chill included this morning.The weather is supposed to be better tomorrow, I'm counting on class being held. As I was leaving on Tuesday I found out that I was getting a larger, teacher-style, desk. I am surprisingly excited to see what that looks like. With the days off I have had time to prepare some of the items that I will be taking into the school for the next 7 weeks.
As far as my class, I believe I have learned almost everyone's names. I am impressed at the level of discipline that the entire school shows. The 5th grade classroom operates very autonomously. I have had the opportunity to work with small groups several times and that has been a great way to get to know the students. I feel very welcome there at this point, and I am grateful for the friendliness that all of the teachers and staff members have shown me.
