Freaking Out





My first day of student teaching is tomorrow and I am having serious flashbacks from my own K-12 days:

What will I wear?
Will I know what to say?
Will the other kids (teachers) like me?

I even got some new school clothes (actually, my mother bought them for me- just like old times!) and am planning on trying on my outfit tonight just to make sure everything goes smoothly tomorrow.

My mentor teacher has ruled requested that I play ice breaker games tomorrow with each class.  I don't think I've written about this, but she has FIFTEEN different levels of Spanish, grades 3-8, each week so I had to get the weekly calendar out to see exactly what ages I should target.

I spent the last hour and a half planning for the fifth, sixth, and eighth graders I will have on Mondays...until I realized that tomorrow is Tuesday.  On Tuesdays I have third and fourth graders.  *Gulp*

Back to the drawing board.
Wish me luck.
