Almost immediately I felt at home in the 1st grade classroom at Kennedy Elementary School. Although I realized that I could teach 8th grade and that the students were really fun....I know now that I most definitely want to teach in an elementary classroom. I love the little kids and I love how Ms.Hausmann sings to them.
Having my first day at Kennedy on Valentine's Day was probably a special treat. The kids were all very excited for the holiday and it was cute to see their valentines bags lined up along the wall. The day was different because of the afternoon party, they condensed all the lessons into the morning. So we had heart math problems, heart art etc.
Ms.Hausmann asked me to help out as much as possible and just follow her lead. At first I didn't know exactly how to work with the 1st graders because I had been accustomed to teaching in the 8th grade. But I got a lot more comfortable after the first day.
