My first day impressions were

OH MY GOSH IM SO NERVOUS I WAS SHAKING THE WHOLE TIME AND
BECAUSE OF LITTLE KINDERGARTNERS , I WAS NERVOUS AND EXCITED ,
THE CLASSROOM IS SO ADORABLE AND I ALREADY KNOW IM GOING TO
LOVE THESE KIDS, THEYRE SO SMART AND SO OUTGOING.

My cooperating teacher is best described as

MY CT SEEMS PRETTY NICE , I CAN TELL SHE DOESNT PLAY GAMES AND
SHE HAS GOOD CONTROL OVER HER CLASS
My most memorable moment so far was when
MY MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT SO FAR WAS IN MY FIRST WEEK WHEN
THIS STUDENT WALKED UP TO ME AND GAVE ME STICKER. I DONT KNOW
WHY THIS MADE ME SO HAPPY BUT I STUCK THE STICKER ON THE BACK OF
MY BADGE SO I WOULD ALWAYS HAVE IT .

My most awkward moment so far was when

THE MOST AWKWARD MOMENT WAS ON MY FIRST DAY WHEN I WALKED IN

MY CT MADE ME INTRODUCE MYSELF , WHICH WASNT TOO BAD, IT WAS
JUST KIND OF UNCOMFORTABLE BECAUSE THE KIDS WERE LOOKING AT ME
LIKE I WAS AN ALIEN AND ONE THEM EVEN WHISPERED TO ANOTHER DO
YOU LIKE HER?

The most exciting thing Ive learned so far is

THE MOST EXCITING THING I LEARNED SO FAR IS THAT MY CLASS IS AN
INCLUSION CLASS

The scariest thing Ive learned is

SCARIEST THING IVE LEARNED IS JUST HOW MANY SOLS THERE ARE AND
HOW MANY SUB- OBJECTIVES THERE ARE

What I wish I knew before I started my internship

I WISH I KNEW JUST HOW AWKWARD IT WOULD BE , THEY STARE , A LOT .
Questions I have are
DO THE KIDS LIKE ME?
WHEN WILL I BE ABLE TO START DOING THINGS?
WILL I BE GOOD ?
