Okay, I havn't shared any funny teaching stories, yet. So, here goes. My first day of school was fun and exhausting at the same time. I found myself much more nervous for meeting the parents two days earlier than hanging out with their kids all day. Apparently, they were not very intimidated by me either because in my 7th grade math class I had this interchange with a student.
Student: (raising hand with a somewhat mischievious grin on his face)
Me: Is this a serious question or a smart comment (teasing)
Student: Oh, no it's a serious question.
Me: Okay
Student: Were you in drama, because you do a lot of...over exaggerating and stuff?
Needless to say, my only response could be to laugh and confirm that yes, I was in drama. Note to self: tone it down a bit.
So teaching is fun and I have had a chance to build some really great relationships with the students. We have our first elementary field trip this Thursday and I'm hoping I don't loose any kindergarteners to the goats at the fair. Pray for us.
