Today was my first day as the teacher's aide for the first grade class I decided to help out. Those kids are adorable, oh my gosh! I am now officially Ms. Katie, and get to work with the little ones individually on reading and math. I cannot believe the huge range in ability between all the kids! I don't know how a teacher could attend to the students individual needs by themselves. I read with one student who had to sound out just about every word he read, while another (who had already skipped a grade) was reading a chapter book better than half of some of the middle schoolers I had in Florida. Crazy!
I will be working there five hours a day, three days a week. It seems to be a good little set up.
I cannot believe we are already halfway through November! It's ridiculous, I feel like yesterday I was in awe at how fast October flew by! Again, crazy!
