I know it's been a while since I've posted...you can thank Final Block for that! Jesse and I have been extra busy with work, school, and moving! We love our new place in Fairhaven (still unpacking) and will have to post some pics soon! Final block has been quite the whirlwind but it's almost done!! I can't even believe it! Jesse has been so helpful as I've been scrambling around, not sleeping much, and drinking lots of caffeine (yes, real caffeine)! I've had to put my cooking adventures on hold but cannot wait for summer to get back into meal planning and organizing!! :) For final block, we're each working with a classroom but focusing with two target students, one for math and one for writing. I'm up in Blaine (on the USA/Canada border) working with a third grade boy for math and a fifth grade boy for writing. I'm in the resource room and feel so blessed to be placed there because the students are great and my cooperating teacher is wonderful! I have many great stories of the kids (especially from the wa state testing these past two weeks)! My favorite thus far was from yesterday. Our third graders were doing the math portion of the MSP (used to be called the WASL when I was in school) in the resource room. One student was on a problem that asked him to round the number to the nearest hundredth. So following the directions quite literally, he drew many circles around the number. He was literally rounding the number. Even though he won't get any points for the answer...I am wishing he will get some creativity points :) I'm lucky to get to see this stuff all the time! Bless their little hearts, they try so hard! I have also received my student teaching placement, which will be in Bellingham in a kindergarten through 2nd grade resource room! I'm really excited to start student teaching, but am really looking forward to having some time off this summer!
Well I have no super exciting recipe to post...but I do have a link to a really yummy and easy Wonton soup! Enjoy!
