Currently I am working on autobiographies with my students. I am thoroughly entertained in reading what they write. One of my students wrote about how I send home fun homework assignments except for the spelling, because it is boring. Another student wrote about how when I came into the classroom I taught them the ABC'S and gave them spelling tests. I laughed at this, because I modified President Monson's ABC's in abundant living, for our class. You know the have a positive Attitude, Believe in Yourself, and have the Courage to do what is right! I always bring up the ABC's in the classroom. As a teacher, you do not just prepare your students to pass the grade, or graduate from school. You prepare your students to make it in the world. That is why I thought President Monson's ABC's would be appropriate for my classroom.
Let's see what else. My school does a huge show once a year. As soon as I got the job, my team leader informed me that I would have to prepare a number for my students to perform during the Spring Show. Haha, I love dancing, but in no way am I a dancer. Here is a little glimpse of what we are doing. Imagine these guys in tiger suits, in a giant theater, with lots of bubbles. While you watch this video, remember I have no dance background. I did take a dance class my junior year of high school!
