So walking through the library the other day and stop to admire a whole school photo. Notice in front there is this little chubby kindergarten kid with hand covering half his face to block the sun. For any of you counting it was me around 19 years ago. Wow time passes fast.

Well after a couple weeks of mostly watching my CT it is my turn to teach as I have the Grade 9 Trans math class for at least the week, probably starting some Grade 12 consumer and then will finish the year teaching a unit in Grade 11 Physics. As weird as it sounds I think the physics will be the easiest. I always find it is easier to teach the “smarter” students than the ones struggling in the class. It should be a lot of fun.

During the semester we have heard how teachers have to be professional in and out of the classroom I saw teachers come to school in the dirtiest clothes, weird looking costumes and their pajamas. Yes this week was spirit week and some of the teachers go all out. It is a good time. Also got to join the staff of both the colligate and elementary for their Christmas party and saw a different side to the staff.

Hope you are all enjoying your practicum as much as I am and looking forward to hearing more from each of you.
