Fifth Visit to my Elementary School

Going to my fourth was the usually routine signing into the VIPS binder and grabbing a guess pass then heading to my classroom. When I'm in my classroom its so natural like I'm suppose to be there. I love working with all the kid's. I wish I went everyday. This visit in particular they finally changed it up. They came in from recess and did the same bathroom routine then went into the classroom and put all their stuff away in the closet the teacher calls it. Then they sat on the carpet like usual and the teacher went over what they were doing in class that day. They where in partners and/or groups doing science. They had little books that they had to read in their groups then write in their OWN words what they just read. This was a very good lesson for the kid's to find out a way to write what they learned in their reading without plagiarizing. I sat with two of the groups to help keep them focused because they are a little chatty. They wrote notes very well then even drew some pictures. My groups where learning about the stars, planets, moon, and sun. Other groups where learning about weather changes and storms like tornados. After they finished their science they passed their science notebooks into the teacher who will correct them later. Then they were sent back to their seats where they took out their grammar books. Today they were going over Pronouns such as he, she, it, we, they, you. Then they went through the three activities that came with pronouns. Then they put their grammar books away and took out their literacy notebooks where they took notes on suffix and went through what they were and examples of them are. Then when they were done with that they put that away and took out their workbook and ripped out their homework like usual and went and back up their stuff. Then put up their chairs on the desks and went to the rug. The teacher asked them questions till the bell rang. That was my Que to leave before all the kid's trampled me to leave. It was a fun day and I loved how the teacher changed up the activities for a nice change. That was my fifth visit.
