My first two weeks of field experience were unbelievable and it has gone really fast. I can't believe its been two week already! I am so exciting to wake up early in the morning to go and greet the students. I have learned a lot from my CT about how to control the students, but also give them enough time for themselves so they can still do their best learning. It is amazing to see how far the students have come in the last 2 week!
My CT uses the interactive whiteboard several times a day. First, my CT starts out with having the students check in when they get their in the morning by sliding under if they are having cold or hot lunch. I think this is a good idea because it is doing double duty by seeing who is all here for the say and also sees who is eating what for the day. Today my partner and I took over the sharing portion of the morning and it was so much fun to be in that role. The students love sharing time because it is their turn for the rest of the class to pay attention to them. I really enjoy my students and my CT!
My CT also starts out with having the students check in when they get there by reporting if they will have hot or cold lunch. I really like that you and your partner got to do the morning meeting together! My CT had us do morning meetings right away and they were all individual. This made for a really good experience, but I felt a little unprepared as we were thrown right into it. I also agreed that my students too came a long way, even in the first couple weeks!
