I have been so busy since the last post! My fieldwork is almost over I just have Mon-Wed. this coming week and I am done!! I am excited about going to normal but I think I will miss the students! They are cute...well some of them lol :) I did my one major lesson I had to do. It had to be a writing lesson. The students were learning about Presidents, so my lesson was about Obama. Politics aside it was a really cute lesson :) The main idea of the lesson it that President Obama was looking for a pet and needed the classes help to decide! I read a book that talked about the past presidents' pets. Mostly the crazy ones(John Adams' wife raised silk worms...the smallest White House pets. Teddy had 40 pets...everything from hyenas to bears) Then after I read to them we together wrote a letter to Obama. Basically:
Dear President Obama,
We heard that you were looking for a pet. There has been many different pets in the White House. We are going to send you some of our suggestions.
Your Friends,
Ms. Schneider's class
After that I had the students write "You should get a:______" and fill in the blank then draw a picture of the animal. It turned out SO cute!! As you can tell I am really excited about my lesson lol
This past weekend (not this one the one before) was Mardi Gras in Galveston. It was fun but COLD!! Don't worry we were in the good part, so no flashing! :) lol Sara and Carrie(Sara's friend) were down from Austin for that, it made it funner. (Sara is Joey's cousin) The next day we went to Shrimp and Stufff...AWESOME!!! I was the only one that didn't get shrimp LOL I had the catfish. It was delicious! :D This weekend has been nice and relaxing so far.
OH!! We are starting to look for a HOUSE! :D Joe, Joey's dad, knows a guy real well that is a realtor and he is going to help us! He sounds really nice! So tomorrow we are going to go look at some houses that he has emailed us about earlier this week! :D I am so excited about house hunting! I have been in an apartment for so long and it would be nice to paint or just do whatever with our home! :) I am excited about getting our first house! The houses that we are going to go look at tomorrow seem really nice! I will let you know how it goes!
Well not everyone is happy these days. With that I mean Daisy.
