November 3- November 7

On Monday, Mrs. Turner returned back from her trip. We had to catch her up on the previous week's events and tell stories about our cute buddies. We talked about our pre-school observations. We compared the different things each pre-school had to offer . Collectively, we decided that if money was not an issue we would send our children to Legacy. If money was a limitation the next best option seemed to be The Sunshine House. We briefly discussed two articles: Hurried Child and the Montessori Method. Also on this day Mrs. Turner informed us on our upcoming events, such as our trip to Anderson University.

Tuesday: Election Day!!!!

On Wednesday, MRS. TURNER'S BIRTHDAY! We successfully pulled off our surprise party. We sung happy birthday (very off key), and ate cake and donuts. This was a really special day because Mrs. Turner is a very special person and she means the world to every single one of us. After partying for more than half of the class, we learned about glyphs and lesson plans. We looked a sample of a lesson plan that was about a pizza glyph that we did. We learned about how children can learn and analyze data using these glyphs.

On Thursday, We had a guest speaker, Mrs. Kelly Nalley. She told us about how she was pushed to go into the medical field because of her brains, but her heart told her that she wanted to teach. Mrs. Nalley gave us insite on how the first years of teaching would be and how it made her feel. She shared with us a few words from her journal which included descriptions that would have made me quit, but she kept following her heart. She told us how she had to let go, because nothing was going to be perfect when it came to teaching. Mrs. Nalley, was an amazing speaker and gave us a good insight on the elementary school teacher's point of view.

On Friday, we shared our personal glyphs that we made. Everyone's' glyphs looked absolutely adorable. We moved around the classroom to see each others' creations. All of them simply looked great, but that's expected because we are great :)
