Today was AMAZING. It was a day of little teaching victories. My observation went wonderful and I really shined in my classroom management. I will absolutely be using literacy centers in my own classroom. I even bought bins for today's lesson. One less thing to get for my own classroom someday. It was so exciting to buy classroom supplies :) AH I can't wait!
I gave the students a picture prompt and asked them to write about what they think was happening.The students finished their stories at the end of the day and they were phenomenal. I was shocked at what a difference I saw in their writing. Given an interesting topic or a prompt, their creativity really soared. When I told them that we would be using picture prompts again, they cheered! It was a wonderful feeling listening to their stories. They used description words, sequence and their stories were much longer than usual. I was so impressed and thrilled.
Also, one more student is reading! WOOOOO!
Today was just phenomenal. I was reminded today why I am a teacher. My students did so well today and I feel like a million dollars.
