Today i visited the middle school and the 7th graders are so sweet. I would love to teach them one day im so ready for that day. I was able to not only observe, but help the students with their work if needed which made me feel great. I know that i was born to do just that and im loving it. There are a few children that are self-contained or are in need of special assistance. I'm already familiar with that area because i learned to deal and work with them when i was a senior in highschool. The 7th graders are so friendly,welcoming, and warming. They were anxious to see who i was and asked questions and introduced themselves to me. I was so delighted that they were interested in knowing me as well as me introducing myself to them. The class i visited was Social Studies or History the subject they studied today was World War II.
The second class i visited today is called Algebra I, the 8th graders. I will have to say that they are very rambunctious. They talked while teacher was teaching, passed notes, laughing, and just not paying attention. I noticed that most kept looking at me for some excuse for being distracted. They are also not friendly at all like the 6th and 7th graders and elementary students. They are at the age where they are forming or already have attitudes. Some of the students act like they have no discipline whatsoever they are the worse students. I have never observed a class where they had so much going on and the class seemed out of control. I would hate to be that teacher teaching the eighth graders i feel sorry for the teachers/parents. I noticed that most teachers seemed to use smartboards as presentations for their subjects in class for that day. I will have to say that 6th and 7th graders are the only ones i see myself teaching.
