Wow, I feel like I've missed a lot of school recently. I had professional development for mentors Monday and Tuesday this week, and honestly think it could have been condensed into 1 day. Having said that, I actually did get something out of it. Helpful forms to use with my Resident Educator and maybe with my student teacher, too. Hey, I'll take anything I can!
So, I'm back to school tomorrow, just in time to give my kiddies their unit assessment...oh I'm nervous for them! We'll see how it goes. I'm really looking forward to our "taxation without representation" experiential exercise tomorrow, though. My textbook has this awesome activity where I tell the kids the school is forcing me to charge them $.10 for every piece of paper I give them (homework, tests, any handouts). Historically, the kids are outraged and we have great discussions following...then I tell them it's all a joke. It's supposed to help them empathize with the colonists who were taxed by Britain following the French and and Indian War. Exciting stuff! The coolest part is hearing their arguments about why it's unfair and then having students offer to cover the cost for their classmates. I'll have to post the results.
I didn't hold a photo shoot yesterday, but my awesome co-worker (holla, Watty!) was willing to be my photographer today.
