MATH CLASS

I'M TAKING A MATH CLASS THIS SEMESTER THAT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY. I HAVE SO MUCH HOMEWORK. I'M TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH ALL THE WORK BUT IT IS TOO MUCH. I HAVE BEEN TRYING EVERYTHING EVEN TAKING SOME TUTORING FROM MY MOM WHO WAS A MATH TEACHER. I USUALLY ASK HER WHO DOES SHE DO IT. IT IS NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE MATH BUT IT DON'T GET IT AS EASY AS SHE DOES.

MY LAST DAY ON FIELD EXPERIENCE

MY LAST DAY WAS LAST WEEK MONDAY. MS. ALVAREZ WAS ABSENT SO THERE WAS A SUB. I NOTICED HOW THE STUDENTS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SUBS. I THOUGHT IT ONLY HAPPEN IN MIDDLE OR HIGH SCHOOLS. EVEN THOUGH MS. ALVAREZ WAS NOT THERE I LEARNED SOME NEW THINGS FROM THE SUB WHO WAS ALSO A STUDENT ALMOST DONE WITH HER BACHELORS. ON THIS FEW DAYS ON FIELD EXPERIENCE I LEARNED A LOT OF DIFFERENT CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES. IT ALSO ASSURE ME THAT TEACHING IS REALLY WHAT I WANT TO.

FIELD EXPERIENCE

ON MARCH 26 WAS MY FIRST DAY ON FIELD EXPERIENCE AT DOLPHIN BAY ELEMENTARY. IT WAS A GREAT DAY IN THE FOURTH GRADE CLASS. THE KIDS WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND I HAD A LOT OF FUN. I REALLY ENJOY BEING AROUND KIDS YOU COULD LEARN O MUCH FROM THEM. IT WAS EARLY RELEASE SO THE DAY WAS A BIT SHORT BUT THE STUDENTS WERE GOOD AND GOT ALOT ACCOMPLISHED.

MY COUSINS WEIRD QUESTION

I WAS AT MY AUNT HOUSE CELEBRATING HER BIRTHDAY. WE WERE ALL SITTING AT THE TABLE EATING DINNER WHEN OUT OF NOWHERE MY 10 YEAR OLD COUSIN ASKS. "DANA AT WHAT AGE DID YOU START POVERTY?" I JUST LOOKED AT HIM WITH A VERY SURPRISE FACE. WHEN THANK GOD MY AUNT SAVES ME AND SAYS. WELL THATS A VERY PERSONAL QUESTION BUT I BELIEVE ALMOST EVERYONE STARTS AROUND 12 OR 13. I WAS SO RELIEVED THAT SHE ANSWERED I WAS IN SUCH SHOCK AFTER HE SAID THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

A NIGHT IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM

LAST FRIDAY NIGHT I WAS IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM. IT WAS ON OF MY WORST FRIDAY NIGHTS. I HAD A FEVER SINCE WEDNESDAY THAT DIDN'T GO AWAY. I ARRIVED AT 8:45PM AND LEFT AT 2:00AM. ALL OF THAT TIME SPENT THERE PRETTY MUCH FOR NOTHING BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. ALL THE DOCTOR DID WAS GIVE ME AN ANTIBIOTICS AND REFER ME TO ANOTHER DOCTOR TO SEE ON MONDAY. AFTER THIS LAST VISIT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM I WILL NOT GO AGAIN UNLESS I CAN'T BREATH OTHERWISE I WILL WAIT TILL MONDAY AND SEE A DOCTOR.

The guy on the car next to mine

I was driving to school one day and usually I'm not paying much attention to who is next to me because I'm usually look at the kids making sure they are fine. This particular time I was looking because I was assigned to do so. The first thing I noticed was what kind of car he was driving a Honda Accord. I then saw he was an older man so I thought maybe he is married or divorce. Why is he so serious maybe he is married and had a fight with his wife. Then I thought why is he wearing a suit maybe he works in an office or he is a sales man. He then looked at me I was kind of embarrassed to I stopped looking. I then thougt what do people think when they see me driving. Maybe they think why is such a small person driving an expedition. Can she see over the steering wheel.

This Weekend

This weekend was a very busy one for me. I had to move and my husband and two sons are sick. We moved in the same complex we just transferred to a smaller unit. My son who's one has been sick since the beginning of the month but starting throwing up and diarrhea yesterday. This week we also had a very hard time with school the kids can't seen to get use to it. I really liked Thursdays class discussion. Well see you next week.
