I Feel Like A Movie Star!

So this week was my last lesson of elementary science, and I got to say there is no way it could have gone any better! My lesson plans were thoroughly approved, the lesson went great, and I got to sign autographs. It was pretty funny, at the end of class I thought I was just going to walk out and that would be the end of it. Instead, all the students wanted my co-teacher and I to sign there science journals. Then, they gave us there autographs with little messages like "I Love Soils". It was really cute! The one thing I was not prepared for was when the students asked me to come back. I guess the kids loved the unit so much they wanted to keep going with it. I did end up telling them I couldn't, even though I really wanted to, and I got to say those pouty faces really do make an impression. I'm really going to miss them all, they were a great class. But who knows, maybe I'll see them again in fifth or six grade!

  1. Neil,
    I'm so glat to hear that you had a fantastic final sciene lesson! That is really awesome that your students got so attached that they all wanted you to sign their journals...and they gave you autographs as well! Our class asked us to visit and I did't see the request coming either! But, we made a promise to visit in January...pouty faces indeed make a strong impression! Sounds like you had a great experience!

  2. Neil, I agree it is always so sad to leave the students. Last year when I helped out with a first grade class, the students begged me to comeback and be their third grade teacher after I finished school. It was so sad leaving them. I also fear the difficulty we are going to face, leaving our students in our student teaching classes. That's awesome that they wanted your autographs, that must have made you feel real good! Good Luck and best wishes!
