Erratic wisdom

  Oops! 24/6/24 It was my second observation day!! I can't believe it.. because my first observation day was on 21/06/24. This week was not good for me. It contains mixed emotions like happy ...sad etc.. I'm this week I decided to what kind of classroom reward and discipline duty I wanted to have. Since I'm strong believer of positive reinforcement and I based my policy around it. Through these policies classroom management become easier. I'm lucky to say that I have not had many discipline problems in my class. The students are actively participated in my activities. I started a new lesson in this week. The poem Taj Mahal.

  Week 1: the beginning I did it! I survived my first two days of school! Woo-hoo! I had thought these two days would be the longest (and worst) days of my life, but they weren’t. I got through them. I am now officially a training teacher! These past two weeks have showed me what people mean when they say, “It is not easy being a teacher.” I quickly realized this before school even started! My principal told me ten days before school started that I had eighth grade, so I did not have much time to prepare. I knew that once school started, I would have so much student work to display that I would eventually run out of space. Even though this did not really comfort me as I looked at my bare walls, I knew that everything, including the classroom and myself, would change once the students came in. The night before the first day of school I could not sleep. I tossed and turned all night, wondering, “Will my students like me? Will I know who they are? Will I remember do to everything? Wil...
