First day in the field!

First day in the field of teaching was a success! Walking into that school just nerve racking! I was so nervous about my first day of being a student teacher helper but as soon as I got to my classroom and met my teacher I realized it was going to be okay. Mrs. Rhonda was very welcoming! She did everything she could to help fill me in on what I would be helping her with. I could tell that she was a very organized but effective teacher. The kids came in a immediately took out the work and began their bell work, as they did that I graded papers. Instead of everyone talking when she asked yes or no questions they used a thumbs up or thumbs down system! The room was highly decorated with all kinds of posters and art. The majority of the class was boys. I had a great time in my class and can not wait until next week! Miss. Martin is ready to succeed in the fourth grade class room!
