And it's only Wednesday...

I'm so glad it's Wednesday...
SO GLAD.

It's been a rough week of student teaching.

• One of our Word Knowledge words was "fernlike" and I tried to describe the word using a picture I drew on the whiteboard that I thought resembled a "fern." Apparently, I'm a bad artist... A girl raised her hand, I thought she had a "connection" to our vocabulary word, so I called on her.  She pointed to my "fern" and said "it's like a marijuna leaf."
• A student said "I'm not going to be here on Monday.  Or on Tuesday.  Or on Wednesday.  Or on Thursday.  Or on Friday."  I think he's mad at me...
• During snack, a girl took a spoonful of yogurt and decided to "share with friend"... she spooned a dallop of yogurt into the palm of her friend. The friend was about to lick the yogurt off her dirty palm, but I stopped her.
• The /wh/ sound spelling is the focus of our spelling words this week and a student asked me "how do you spell 'why'?" This was right after an 30 minute spelling activity and 'why' was a word we covered.

Did I mention, I am student teaching in a 2nd grade class? #SMH
