Today we prepped for innovation night in both Culture and Conflict and Intro to Lit. I was so excited to go and see what all the students came up with for their final projects.
Today I went to E block Intro to Lit, where the students took the test Mel and I created for them. While I made sure no one was cheating, Mel and I started creating the F block test for Friday. Because Mel was not teaching any other blocks today, it gave me a chance to catch up on my reading. I read Saltwater Buddha the most, because it is such and inspirational book. After seminar this evening I helped Mel crate a gimkit for one of tomorrows Culture and Conflict blocks. Overall I completed 3:30 hours of work. :)
I had a nice and slow morning today since I didn’t have a class till 10:10. The first class was E block Intro to Lit. It was a day for students to catch up on work for their capstones. I walked around and made sure everyone was on track and if not, I helped them get there. I went to lunch and then got vaccinated. During Culture and Conflict we listened to Kelly present on her winter final, and she did amazing. Mel and I then walked over to F block Intro, where the students took the 57 Bus test. It was good day! I worked about 4 hours. F block Intro to Lit
On my first day as a teachers assistant I got to attend 2 classes and catch up on some of the reading that I am required to do, to better help teach these classes. I sat through Culture and Conflict after assembly at 10:10. Since I have been taking this class all year, I understand how Mel and Ellie work, and I simply listened while they gave a little preview on what the next two weeks will look like, learning about Africa and reading the book, American Spy. After first and second lunch I attended Athletes in Lit, where I once again simply listened as Mel explained the next few weeks and the final project after reading Saltwater Buddha . After that class, Mel and I met for a while to talk about how to make the final projects for both Culture and Conflict, and Athletes in Lit more engaging. Overall, I spent about 4:00 hours attending class, meeting with Mel and reading. Today made me really excited to have chosen this as my Senior Project and I am eager to see what I will lea...
