Most Excellent Day!

I had the best day today. I spent the my first day in my third grade classroom at Blountville Elementary School. I LOVE my mentor teacher. She is awesome.

I was so blown away.....from the first thing this morning til the end of the day. Some children walked into the room early and just started passing out notebooks and folders. As others came in, they put their lunch boxes, bags, etc. in their proper spots, sat at their desk and began morning work. Without being told!

Even when the class was engaged in discussion or other lessons, the room was always under control. This teacher has the class well trained. They were so great. She only had to call down a student or two a few times during the day. Nothing serious. But, she said something once to the offender and that was it!

She is totally engaged with those kids. And you can tell how much they love her. It was an awesome experience and I can't wait to go back.

I got to help quite a bit too!!! Yay.....

Hope everyone else has a good placement.
