The first week of fieldwork has gone by so fast! I absolutely LOVE working a 6th grade classroom. The students are absolutely wonderful! It has been so much fun getting to know both our cooperating teacher and his class. Our teacher always finds ways for us to help in the classroom. We get to help the students with their schoolwork, take them to P.E./recess, and grade MOUNTAINS of assignments.
Last week Rebecka and I had some time to prepare for our lessons. Luckily, she had designed these lessons earlier this semester for Curriculum Design and Assessment so all we had to do was make some minor adjustments. I am so excited to actually put what I have learned throughout the semester to use.
Our lessons are geared towards Social Studies but we also get to include technology and creative arts in them. Before we went into the class, I was a little nervous about how we were going to go about these lessons simply because our cooperating teacher is a core teacher, not a Social Studies teacher. He wanted us to teach about WWII and suggested we used the Language Arts time to teach our lessons.
Although I am excited for this week, I am somewhat nervous because our supervisor will be there for our first lesson!
