THE NICE THING ABOUT SUBBING FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
Today I substituted for a 5th/6th grade class. Elementary school children are really wearing me down. This class wasn't particularly bad. Nothing I couldn't handle. But I just feel so tired at the end of the day.
The nice part was Emily and Megan. Emily is a student teacher from UCSB assigned to that class this year, and Megan is an aide for an autistic boy in the class. Every once in a while I come to a class in an elementary school and there stands a cute young teacher-to-be and all my worries fade away. One time last year after some casual flirting with a student teacher in a kindergarten class I got a lovely note on my windshield at the end of the day. With a phone number. :)
In other news, this Saturday I will be helping chaperone the Dos Pueblos Homecoming dance. Us Young Life leaders chaperone various dances throughout the year, including (but not limited to) Homcoming, Winter Formal, and Prom. It...is...AWESOME. So much fun! Remember your high school dances? The ones that weren't awkward? I had fantastic dance experiences in high school. And it is so fun to see all the students I sub for get dressed up. Makes me happy.
