Today was finally the first day of my internship!!! (Applause) (:
The day started off FAR too early, at 5 AM (Thank goodness for coffee!). I was so excited I could hardly contain myself. Today I visited my second placement. That meaning, this is the school I will be teaching in beginning in March. I could not have asked for the day to have gone any smoother.
First off, my cooperating teacher is so much like me that it is scary. I could tell from the get go that she was a pleasant person to be around. I also discovered that she is very organized, as am I (or I like to think so). If there is one thing I love in life, it's structure and organization!
This was an opportunity to get to know the students, as well as the teacher, before beginning there in March. I got a chance to observe a few lessons and I even helped out during small group time. It felt great to know that I was able to jump in and help her if she asked. I can already tell this is going to be a great, great, GREAT experience (: !!!!
After the initial visit, I had to run to the University to meet with my professor, met up with another girl with the same placement, and decided we might be able to work out a carpool schedule. I wonder if everyone is this excited after their first day.
The ONLY downfall of today....... finding out that my first placement school is closed tomorrow. The closing was not planned. The recent cold weather has caused a few water leaks here and there. As a matter of fact, one of them happened to affect my husband and myself this weekend. A pipe burst under the house, but that is all fixed now. Hopefully my school will reopen on Thursday. I am so anxious to meet my teacher and the students!
Stay Blessed,
K (:
