The BIG OBSERVATION week!

Well once again it is catch up time! I have been behind on this blog thing. But , there is a reason for that. A.) I wrote this whole thing up last Friday and accidently deleted it right before I posted it and B.) last week was crazy and busy. Last week my supervisor was here and I had my big observation. My observation went great but I was really nervous because the week before my students were not listening and being little turds. Luckily, they were angels for me when my supervisor was here! It was nice to have here her because she is super nice but it was nice for her to be gone as well. As soon as she left the stress was off!

Two weekends ago is when my supervisor first got here. We met up with her on Saturday and wandered around Bamberg and we went out to a wonderful dinner. Then we all got up early Saturday morning to go to a neighboring town and have lunch at my mentor teachers house! It was a very busy and pleasant weekend! Then on Monday it was a final day for my to prepare before Chris my supervisor came in to my classroom. That night our supervisor came over for dinner and I made a whole chicken, red potatoes, fresh green beans, a wonderful salad and homemade strawberry vinaigrette dressing.

On Tuesday, my supervisor spent the afternoon in my classroom. Things went great and I felt very positive about the interaction. Tuesday night we had a big dinner down town with the administration, our mentor teacher and supervisor it went great! Then it was Wednesday and my day to shine! I was super neverous at first and then I realized that I didn’t have time to be nervous because the kids were still kids and had a MILLION and a Half needs. I was so busy solving there problems and doing my daily routine that half the time I forgot my supervisor was there, which turned out to be a great thing! My observation was very successful! YAHOO! I tried to relax the rest of the week, and Friday we went out for a little and got to try the great Bach beer!
