Short Week

This last week was an awesome time to be in the classroom. On Tuesday the other block 1 student and myself instructed students through a turkey craft that took around 45 minutes. This was the first time that either of us got to be in front of the classroom and lead an activity. I do an activity during daily five everyday but usually with a maximum of 6 kids. This was a great learning experience as things did not go as planned and some kids were talking and off task while this lesson was going on. The other teacher and myself were able to get the students back on track while still helping the students who were following instructions. This was a great first hand experience of how teachers must adapt and go with the flow of the day to ensure things move swiftly.
