I still have energy!

I still LOVE LOVE LOVE student teaching.

I know it's going to be difficult when I go to full days, but I truly think if you love what you're doing, the days just fly by. I've already seen progress in my few weeks there, and it warms my heart. My students, parents, cooperating teacher, and all of the other teachers are so wonderful, helpful, and supportive.

We weren't going to do anything for the 100th day of school next week, but I totally can't do that, so I found a couple activites, and found a way to adapt them to what we're learning, so we can still do some cute small fun things.

We're working on reading maps in literature and social studies starting Tuesday, and I found the PERFECT activity to go along with that. Several bloggers have mentioned having students estimate where 100 steps will take them, well we're going to estimate and map out where 100 teacher steps will take us. My cooperating teacher is taking half of the kids down one way, and I will take the other half the other way to include some variety. I made up a worksheet and everything. It's super basic, but I'm proud to say I made it myself haha. Thank you bloggers everywhere for your ideas. I totally took ideas and adapted from several images on google.

We're also going to do this cute math warm-up Thursday morning. This is precious and courtesy of Fun in First Grade. My kiddos will love love love it. 


Well I'm off to spent the evening with my parents, niece, and nephew. I'm super excited that I already have my teaching for next week planned AND have some extra activities to include.
