Today was the first day I got to go to my new internship site! :D Since I wanted to be an elementary teacher at that time, I signed up to do an internship with my favorite teacher ever :D :D :D

I was really nervous at first because I didn't know if the little 4th graders would like me or not :( I was also afraid because I didn't want to make a speech or introduce myself or anything like that. That good news is I didn't have too :D I got there 10 minutes early, so I had to find my own way to the classroom :( Mrs. Curtis (the teacher) obviously didn't tell the people working in the office that I was horrible with directions :roll: :( They just told me the room number :roll: I got lost :lol: Twice!!! :lol: In an elementary school!!! :lol: :oops:

When I eventually did find the room [:lol:], I knocked on the door and hid so they couldn't see me through the window :lol: A little girl answered the door and said hi. When I said hi back, she let me in. Everyone was staring at me!!! :o Mrs. Curtis stopped talking and just stared for a bit. Then she walked towards me commenting on how much I'd changed and how great I look :roll: We shook hands, then she introduced me to the class. They said hi, then I said hi and that was that :lol: I got to sit in the back of the classroom and "observe" the goings ons :lol: They learned spelling, social studies, and reading. Their "daily sentence" was about my arrival and little bit about me as a person :oops:

The kids kept looking back at me, smiling, and then got to work again :lol: Some just stared :( That was really uncomfortable :lol:

One thing I thought was funny was that Mrs. Curtis uses some of the same worksheets I used when I had her for a teacher :o I got some of my memories back too!!! :shock: :lol:

There was this one little chubby cute kid who was ecstatic about my arrival and wanted to give me a tour of the library and school :lol: He forgot though :lol: When he came back to the room, Mrs. Curtis reminded him of his offer and his eyes got huge and he apologized mulitple times :lol: It was so adorable!!! :lol:

This is going to be so much fun!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
