Field Experience Week 4!

Observations:
I realized just how strict the new food rules are this week! One of my students had their terrific kid snack this week and I was there when they had it. I was expecting like store bought cupcakes but no! They are no allowed to have full sized cupcakes, I think the mini ones are okay. The student had brought individual packages of apple slices and carrots and that was it! Everything had to be sealed and packaged separately. I was just shocked that everything had changed so much! It made me realize how lucky I was to have been able to bring snacks and cook in class with our teachers.

Learning Experiences:
I usually work in small groups with my students while they are working on math. This week we were preparing for their math test, and I learned that these kids knew what to do but they just needed the one on one or small group times. They were trying so hard to show me what they knew and it just made me realized that they were trying to prove you that they knew it.

Reflections:
This week we were talking about the kids fairytale tea party and how they were so excited for it. And what they were doing to prepare for it. I made me remember when I was in second grade, and what I wore to the fairy tale tea party and how it was just a fun day.

Stories to Share:
I continue to get hugs and smiles when I first see my students, and it just warms your heart a little to know that they are so happy to see you. I continue to look forward to seeing them every day I go!
