I can’t believe it’s been three weeks since my last blog, things have been moving so fast. Here is part 1 of the recap:
Two weeks ago I had my observation, and it was awesome. My supervisor came in to observe one of my classes; normally the class she came to observe can be a bit of a handful. But luckily I have gotten to be good friends with their homeroom teacher, and she gave them a “pep talk” before my lesson so they were on their best behavior. It was an amazing lesson, they were a year 9(grade 8) class and we held a class debate. They really got into it, and even debriefed themselves after. After that I just had one week left of teaching, and it went really well, the students gave me a send off, and some of the teachers had a lunch celebration for me. The only thing that marred the whole day was that I was ridiculously sick with some horrible New Zealand cold virus.
This last week I have had off to visit other schools in the area, and my favorite by far was Discovery elementary school. I visited a year 1/2 split and a year 7/8 split, I have yet to see anything more adorable that a little 5 year old with a thick Kiwi accent.
And that about wraps it up for my school stuff. I’ve completed my internship and now all that is left is exploring New Zealand. YAY!!
