What just happened?

I like to look at the screens as I go from one station to another to be sure i am prepared and ready to "hit it' at the first second1
I looked up and saw dots going in a circle and squares!! What is the point of these?

We're here to workout- not get our eyes checked!!!. Preparing for a station so we can use our time well includes being able to choose weights, make space if near another etc.. We used to see what we would be doing as we walked ( or crawled) ot the next station.

Corporate!!!!

That's it!

I got a 6 page lesson plan and a 48 power point slide deck for first grade.

I had a long list like this for 7 kids:

BHH- remind him to be safe and keep his hand to himself and to concentrate

OOPAKOOPA- remind to keep focusing and not be jumping around

KLPO - be sure he is listening. Tell him he has to sit where you tell him to sit. If he will not sit there then send him to his desk or if he decides to walk around the classroom LEAVE him alone. Remind him about the calm down corner

hUJIJI - is allowed to eat any time in the class and can walk around. Be war eif she gets upset and call **** for support.

On top of that I could not do the power point until I realized that you have to "slide the screen" . And the position of the computer screen does not allow me to see the screen so I was jumping back and forth.

Of course the whole schedule changed-- go to assembly at xyz time- so we did. OOps- we changed the time. We go back. Back to assembly and back.

Later in day there was a big announcement that kids got their shirts delivered and we have to give them out and the entire school meets outside for a big school photo! 700 kids!

We come back in all hyped- of course it is not quiet.

Then pass out and wrap in a small fragile sack- the Mothers Day presents, then cards--- then specials teacher runs in with flyers to pass out.

I get every body to pick up place and then one kids' left. Have to take to office for them to call. I have to wait til adult answers because I speak Spanish and the office staff does not. WHEW

How was your day?

Yeah, I know. It was tough.

I was fortunate- I had the whole station to myself. Good as in I didn't have to wait for a bike etc. Hard because I am a "go-for-it" kind of person and 'forgot" the first couple stations to take a break.

I picked up a one day job a few weeks ago . A teacher was on a medical leave- one day a week at that school. Today the teacher emailed me and asked if I could commit for the rest of year. I said yes. I said she could put me in aesop.

A couple hours later I emailed their secretary sending her a copy of the request email. 20 or so minute slater I got an email from the secretary that they got another sub to complete the assignment!

I would not have known if I didn't email them.

I am scheduled to sub in Art at the same school later in the week. I feel like cancelling it.
