On Monday and Tuesday of this week, we read our "Barrier Books" to the class. We shared each of the stories with the class since we didn't get to hear them before we read them to Mrs. Vaughn's class. Also on Monday, we had a former Teacher Cadet and a current Teaching Fellow, Madison Kane, come and talk to us about the Teaching Fellows program and gave us a chance to ask any questions we had. This gave us an opportunity to learn more about Teaching Fellows and how it applies to college and scholarships. On Wednesday, we did a lesson on Jean Piaget and cognitive development. We were told to bring in a childhood toy, and we talked about what stage of cognitive development each toy was from and how the toys affected our playing style.
On Thursday of this week, we met at Walmart on Woodruff Road. We were given a "shopping list" and were told to find certain toys that corresponded with a specific stage of cognitive development. I think that the majority of us had more fun playing with the toys as opposed to trying to complete our assignment.
On Friday we hung up our "You Matter" posters for the teachers we adopted, and gave out our "pot" notes.
