FIRST WEEK!!!

Patty and I successfully finished our first week in field! We taught one lesson on Wednesday and it went really well! I love the kids in our class! They are such sweet and thoughtful students! Fourth grade is a good age! They're old enough where it's not strictly babysitting, but they're not too old that they're attitude-nal, as my sister would say, and they're not screaming to get out of elementary school yet! They were really receptive to our lesson on the explorers Escalante and Dominguez! We did a fun mini field trip where we pretended they were explorers experiencing bad weather, hunger, etc, and they were all acting so great! I cannot forget to mention our cooperating teacher! She's so wonderful and such a great example of organization, behavior management, and everything! These next 2 weeks should be even more fun!
