Monday Jan 16: Martin Lurther King Jr Day. No school.
Tuesday Jan 17: Mrs. Turner gives us important dates and info (housekeeping). Also, we are given an assignment to find a high school teacher and shadow them for the next morning.
Wednesday Jan 18: Everyone shadows the teacher of their choice...I choose Mrs. Blount. We are asked to take notes on what we observed. We return back to class and write questions for our cereal talks as well as sign up for teachers to talk with.
Thursday Jan 19: MORNING OF OUR CEREAL TALKS! 2 students are paired with teachers of their choice and ask them questions regarding teaching all over enjoying a nice cup of cereal. We enjoyed juice, cereal, and getting to know our teachers a little bit better. I had Ms. Biggs and she was interesting because although she was a new teacher, she still had so many stories just for 2 years.
Friday Jan 20: (Day of Jason Aldean concert!) Today we took a class trip to Greenville Technical Charter High School. Office K came with us and knew almost every student there. We learned that the reason why it was a charter school was because it keeps their classes small allowing them to know their students personally. We saw english, history, science, and a mandarin !classroom! At the end we split up and got to sit in one a classroom. And when we were leaving I discovered I lost my earring.
