Last Day Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is my last day of prac!! I am SO SO excited!

I can’t wait to finsih Uni forever! Or at least until I do another Uni course… Haha.

Anyway, I can’t wait to start work on Monday- getting back into eLearning. Wish me luck as I have a hard core day at school tomorrow watching toy story and making popcorn and smoothies. :-)

The grey in the morning…

This morning, as I looked out my window in a daze, I saw grey… something, pushing up into the air. Smoke! I thought. Oh man, there’s a bushfire on the other side of the gully!! I look closer, and try to wake up. I tilt my head and reslise it doesn’t actually look like smoke, it looks like water. LOTS of water, gushing up into the air.

I roll over to Luke and wake him (he doesn’t like it). “Can you see that?” I ask, and point out the window. The grey there behind the two trees, on the other side of the gully. He sees it, and thinks that it’s water.

I get my phone and call Dad, and then while I’m getting ready for school, Luke and Pepper investigate. They discover a BIG hole in a BIG pipe, and heaps of water IS spurting out everywhere.

Anyway. Dad gets the water turned off, and fixes it at lunch time. So by the time I’m home from school it’s all fixed!!

Oh, btw, my first ‘proper’ day of school today- teaching the whole thing. It went pretty well! I’m blogging my reflections using pretend names etc. over here. Check it out. I’ll probably just blog the exciting and fun things here! Like the HUGE big ‘tv’ I made them today out of a fridge box. Will post photos tomorrow when they’re in it!!

The Story So Far

So the story so far with my internship is that I am suprised every day when I come home. Suprised because I am not busting to get out of there, crying, angry, or counting down the minutes till I actually finish. :-)

Instead, I am leaving with a plan of what I need to do that night, getting it done whilst still hanging out with friends on occasion. I am smiling at the kids, and acting like a ‘real’ teacher. I just need to work on my sarcasm. 8 year olds don’t really get it and just look at me like they want to cry…. Haha.

Seriously though, Prac has been really interesting. I’ve only been going in 3 days a week (which helps to ease my stress), but I’m feeling confident as I start my proper, full time, internship next week. I’m spending the night this week planning and getting myself ready for Monday morning.

I’ve made a super wall, which is pretty cool, and we’ve done some fun lessons tracing ourselves and drawing in the bones, and watching real live hearts beating on youtube!!! (okay maybe not real live… but it LOOKS real!)

I’ll keep uploading my school photos to this album on facebook.

Heaps good wall I created…

Cool Skeleton I drew:
