Student Teaching has Begun!

Well my peeps, I have been at student teaching for a little over a week now, and it's going well! I haven't really taught anything yet (except for starting a lesson when my teacher had to step out). Next week I do my first full-blown lesson...freshmen want to learn about supply & demand, right?

I'm also helping with cheerleading, which I hope will be really fun! There are 12 girls on varsity and 11 yell leaders on varsity - what?! The two head coaches are really sweet and make me feel welcome.

This might sound weird, but knowing that my girl Corinne (your my girl, Corinne [Forrest Gump voice]) went to this school makes it feel more like home. I haven't gotten lost yet, which is awesome. Also, I have a sweet school lanyard and name badge that make me feel official.

I apologize for the boring-ness of my post this time around. Hopefully I'll have funny stories for you soon. But now, I will leave you with a picture of my new "teacher tote"!

XOXO,
Michelle

woo hoo! I am so excited for you! and I hope cheerleading goes well! I have never worked with yell leaders...that seems like it would add some interesting dynamics!

I got lost all the time when I was student teaching, and my first year at ON.

excited to hear all about it!
