The day the fourth graders arrived was somewhat nerve-wracking. Being a person who is naturally awkward around people, I was scared that I was going to mess this up for the kids. However, once I got things started I was pretty calm (for the most part at least). After I got into the groove of things, I was able to connect with the kids. I got them excited for what's to come and encouraged them to interact with each other and get the most out of their learning experience. I feel like I could have been a little more engaging. I was slightly nervous and very stressed out. However, I feel I did better than I did in the fall. After the first teaching day, I feel like the rest of my group was more prepared for the next day. I would've been more prepared as well if I could have taught on the second day. All the lesson planning and lessons with Biret was definitely helpful and much needed. Without all the preparation we had done, I would've been completely lost.
