Friday February 21, 2015 I observed at Hancock Middle School. While I was there I helped the teacher get all her papers graded and filed. As I was in the classroom helping her I learned that you should always be very organized and have your students work filed nice and neat for when something happens. Being at the Middle school was fun but I also know that the Middle school is a lot different from Elementary.

Thursday February 20, 2014 I went to Hancock North Central to help out with the little kids. While  I was there I was in the library helping other do a bulletin board. I learned that being an elementary teacher you have to be very creative. When we were there the students were reading a book about Abraham Lincoln.

Tuesday I went to the elementary school to help with the District Reading Fair. While I was there I helped lead groups around to their proper destination. One of my classrooms was about recycling. After that class I helped tour the school and show the other students what Hancock North Central was all about. I assisted the kids to present their reading boards to the judges. After that I helped the make their editable landfilled. The day went very well and I really enjoyed being with the school and helping the students and parents.

Yesterday in Mrs. Karen's class l helped students complete activities. I walked around to each table and made sure students were on task. After one student was not completing the work I sat one on one and sure the child was completing and understanding what I was teaching her and helping her with. The student got upset and started to cry, and all I did was comfort her and told her that if she worked hard and completed all her work she could go and play with her friends.

When I was in my Kindergarten class all I did was sponge paint the inside of a plate. When the students are done painting all the white in the inside the plate they will then continue with the rest of the snowman!

Yesterday I was in Mrs. Karens class and a little girl got sick. I walked her to the nurse to get checked out. When I came back to the class room I started working with a little girl on counting. She was hard to work with because she didn't want to do anything. Once I was finished with her I put the students in their centers and walked around to help each one. When they were done with their centers the students were allowed to play games and read a book. I read a book to the ones who wanted a book read to them.

Yesterday was out full day of being at the elementary school. When I arrived at the school the front office asked that me and my fellow classmates help out passing out papers to other teachers. After that was accomplished I went to the class I was assigned to, I took the kids out to recess and walked around making sure they were playing safely. We went into class and started working on math. I walked around to each table and made sure the students were on task and write their numbers correctly. After that we went to lunch for 35 minutes. When we returned from lunch around 1:30 it was the students activity time. I took and brought them to their activity and picked them up. When we got back to the class we help the kids get their folders and pack up.
