What I did at school today.
This is what I got paid to do today!
Walking across the pole...turning around is DEFINATELY the hardest part of that.
This is me propellin down.
This isn't me...but it gives you an idea of how high it was...you can just barely see the 12 ft ladder off to the side...so it was at least 24 ft off the ground.
Going up the ladder. The easy part

Today I went with my 6th grade class on a Ropes Course. Yes they got me up on the element! It was quite the adventure.

What we did over Spring Break
On Saturday we painted Josh's room. Its New York Jets Green and White. Not sure where he came up with being a Jets fan...but no one can accuse him of being a bandwagon fan!
Wall above his bed.
Here is Josh's wall. Its NY Jets Green - the actual color...you can get team colors at Home Depot
Here is the closet...NY Jets White...with NY Jets green behind
The Window. I took pictures of the NY Jets curtain...but it wouldn't flash with the light and was really dark.
This is the wall before we moved in the furnature.

I can see the end!
This week I finish up my student teaching. I'm not teaching full time anymore, I have given the reins back to my host teacher. I am splitting my time between 1st and 6th grade now. Quite a difference in classrooms, I know! Our 6th grade teacher is expecting a baby the end of April, and I will be her long term sub when she goes on maternity leave, so I am getting to know her routine and her kids - hopefully it will make it easire on all 28 of us (24 kids, 2 teachers, and 2 aides!).
I turned in my portfolio this week and recieved a 4 out of 4 on it. If you want to wade through it I can send you the link...but I wrote the papers in it and I don't ever want to read it again, but if a 6 page paper on contextual factors is your idea of a good time I can forward it along. Or just take my word...its done and got a perfect score. I need to print off the important stuff and get something together for when I interview now. My roommate in college was an Elementary Ed major and I always remember our floor being covered with papers, binders, stickers, and whatnot the last week or so before finals. She lives here in Gillette now and I asked if I could come over and we could relive old times. Not sure if she is going to go for it or if I want to haul all my junk across town.
Thats our news...I should graduate in a few weeks, then get to apply for my Utah license - then have the joy of dealing with WY. Having already done that to some extent I'm not looking forward to that part...but hopefully by the end of summer I will have both licenses and a job.
