My observation went really well. Luckily I had delivered that lesson twice before and by the time I got to the third time I had worked out most of the kinks. It went well, the kids were great, and my professor was impressed with me. So that’s good.
Last week I got an email from the Hawaii Association of Independant Schools (HAIS). Seems that NOAA (National Ocean and Atmospheric Adminstration) brings it’s big boat to Hawaii and takes students out on it every year. We were invited to apply for a day trip for 6 of our students. I applied and another science teacher applied (though we didn’t know about the other at the time). We just found out on Friday that we were both picked. We get to go and take 6 students from our school. We are going to have an application process starting on Monday. The cruise is on Monday, November 2nd so we don’t have a lot of time to get this together. Anyway, this is so cool. I love being a teacher and having opportunities like this…
ah yes. teaching is such a fulfilling profession. not the easiest of jobs, a vocation not for the faint of heart- but it is such a privilege to be part of molding impressionable young minds into more valuable members of society =] keep the faith!
so glad you enjoy it. There are too many teachers out there that hate their jobs. (Trust me – I work in 12 schools on a rotation and see a lot of crap)
