Observations Continue!!

I have observed several times at Hurlock Elementary School in a 5th grade classroom.  I have loved every minute!!!  My mentor teacher is awesome, the kids are awesome and I love seeing how public school approaches teaching.  I have spent lots of one on one time with a particular who is struggling with decoding words and inferencing.  She has enjoyed meeting with me and getting some individualized attention.  We have done several activities together and I hope she is benefiting from it.  I do find it amazing that the class has spent so much time on math and science just to prepare for the Science MSA.  For 4 weeks now, they have not had any reading lessons.  I finally was able to see Reading lesson today!  I only have one class left and it's bittersweet!
