I wanted to share with all the "Top 3 Moments of My Week" as my blog post. (This may end up being a regular title for my weekly reflection). I am kind of copying off David Letterman. :)
3) One of the three best moments of my week was getting the family literacy program started. I have so enjoyed helping the parents with the basics of English: introducing themselves to each other, and asking fun and interesting questions to get to know everyone in the class better. It reminds me of when I was studying Spanish in high school and college. I am looking forward to supporting them as they strive to become better English speakers.
2) Another of the three best moments of my week was finding out that when the 1st grade classrooms break into their language arts intervention groups I will get to work with some of the highest students. I am really looking forward to keeping them busy with interesting and fun activities...I love children's literature, and I am hoping to do some activities with the book, Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs. Also, I was able to also get some great language arts materials to use during the intervention time from a teacher friend in Kansas City. I am looking forward to sharing those with the teacher I work with for the intervention tomorrow!
3) Last, but definitely not least, one of the brightest moments of my days is the smiles and hugs I get from students--two in particular. I love it when one asks me if I am going to come into her classroom today or when someone else is interested in doing some fun, yet educational reading with me outside of school.
I am looking forward to seeing all of you on Friday!
Be on the look out for my Top 3 Moments next week.
