So I've done two days now at Keriaville Primary School. My supervising teacher is pretty laid back which is nice, and she's breaking me in nicely. Yesterday I worked with a group of 4 students to draw a hopscotch grid on the ground as part of our maths lesson. I also did a lot of observing her and the children and helping them one on one. It's funny, I got a good idea of the personality/behaviour types in the class. There's the smart kids (2 or 3), the super ADD case hope is annoying as hell, the brown nosers and the "normals". I remember a few names and faces now and should have most covered by the end of the week.
Today was mostly spent working outside with Aaron (the other prac student at my school) drawing out the outlines of various things (map of asutralia, clock, their mascot owl, a snake etc) on the concrete where students will paint in on Thursday during Harmony Day activities. I got my first card today! From a cute little girl named Olivia. She drew a picture of me on the front and wrote "Dear Mr. Lafluer, welcome to our class sorry if I spelt your name wrong. From Olivia" haha, super cute. Today I also ran the fitness part of the class where they do circuit training. That was fun. :)
I get into more and more hands on later this week and into next week as well.
Should be fun!
