Wednesday: I had a lot more "firsts" today! I was excited to get to school this morning because I knew I would be teaching my first 'solo' lesson to the kids! I was nervous that they might give me a hard time but they did soo great!! I talked to them about Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and the special characterstics of the Bay of Fundy. They were excited to look at some pictures (postcards) I brought in of the area and had lots of questions... especially about trees (they are fascinated with them). In terms of their actual langauage arts tasks, they all worked very hard and I was so happy! My teacher also commented on their good behaviour afterwards and said I was a natural. :)
I was happy that my lesson was first thing in the morning, because school ended up being canceled at recess, for the rest of the day! There was a problem with the school's sewage tank and there was an awful smell all through the school. It was gross, but it meant a day off so we were happy! Rosalie, the vice principal Dave, and I walked up the road to their friend Billy's house. He made us a pizza for lunch and we all played a game of poker for a while! Haha, it was a very relaxing afternoon! On the walk back to our apartment, we saw my teacher Lester and his wife. They invited us over for supper this weekend, so I'm looking forward to that! :) Right now, I think its time for a nap. Friday is a holiday, so that means tomorrow is the last day of school this week.... so hard to believe that I'll have 2 weeks done already, the time is flying by!
