Last week :(

7. How do you feel about returning back to classes next week? Do you anticipate a different experience of school now that you have been immersed in a work place? What are you looking forward to about coming back? What are you going to miss about internship?
The idea of returning to hthma, makes me feel kind of sad. And at the same time worried. Because being at internship made me feel different, not just being a student. But considered an adult. Taking responsibilities that I wouldn't of thought, of taking before. My worry is returning to school, and actually having work (paper work) to do. It's not something I love doing, or interested in. Having to be on track, with many classes. And putting the best of my effort to complete. Coming back I look forward to helping out anyone in need, being considerate with other people. Having a POSITIVE attitude, not caring for the non important things. Going beyond the point,were I know I can succeed. Being onto of every single thing, referring with me. There are many ways these, things can help and mix well with school. It will help with my surroundings. And believing I can do anything. There isn't going to be any change really, but making it better yourself. What I'm going to miss from my internship, are the kids I left behind. There way of expressing how they feel, down to help me with anything. There positive attitude, and there cute smiles.Would make my day, also the thoughts they had for every single thing.

week 3

6. What are you thankful for in your internship experience?

I'm thankful of having the mentor I have, because she Is very flexible with everything. I'm also very thankful of being able to work with children, that are very kind and respectful. And being able to learn from them, even though it might be impossible. Since there smaller than us, but it is possible. I love coming in every single day, and hearing "good morning miss. Jeanette". With there great big smiles. I've gotten to know every single one of these kids, and they all have something special. There own personalities.

Coming in every morning and seeing, there bright great attitude. Never complaining and helping each other out, even if it's by opening an apple sauce. At Allen Elementary, every single child treats each other as if they were brothers and sisters. As you see in the picture everybody are friends, even if there a different age. With each others support they get through the whole day. There experience at school and learning, develops by the minute. Because of the curiosity they have.

Week 2

6. How do you see your roll at your internship?

The roll I see myself at internship, is the big girl that helps. The one who "knows everything" and will help you out. Also for the teacher someone I can use to help me out with my own stuff. I feel that the roll I play is a pretty big one, even though some might think it's like a teachers pet job? it's really not. Every single minute I'm working with the students on there reading. It might not seem important to some. But I feel if it wasn't for me the reading capability would stay the same in a way. I'm making a difference slow but surely.

2. What is the biggest challenge face at your internship?
The biggest challenged I faced at my internship, was taking care of a new student. That was her second day at the school, the reason why is because the student had no experience with what she had to do. She had a very surprising attitude at the time. She would act good sometimes but then she would go wild. The worst part was that my mentor, was absent during that week. So that left me to stay in charge of her, It was a challenge.I went the whole day following her, making sure she wouldn't get into trouble. The substitute teacher left with a shock of how, the little one would act. I have to admit it was hard taking responsibility over her, but I gained experience.

1st day

1. What are you excited about, nervous about and wondering about?
I am very stoked about bonding with these children at Allen Elementary, I'm intrigued due to the way they express themselves, as if they were young adults in a small classroom with ABC's hanging on the wall. Also how they communicate to the teacher. I was nervous about whether the children would want to bond with me or not, but luckily they didn't appose.

2. What are you most surprised by during your first week of internship and why?
During my first week of internship, I'm excited and surprised. Seeing how the children engage with each other, even if it's by helping a peer. Nothing can compare with the, love and passion they give to everything. For example today when the children were at recess, a girl spilled orange juice on her self. She was very bummed about it, but the rest of the girls were telling her that everything was going to be okay. That the washer was going to clean it up for her. Having that experience made my day, because, they always look for a solution to there thoughts.
