Journal 6: Teacher Assitance June 3, 2008

My service completed for my seventh grade life science teacher on June 3, 2008 was definately a fulfilling experience. I never realized how much effort goes into preparing the classroom for the eager eyes of ready listeners, and for those few know- it- all kids with sly smiles and a reputation of disrupting lectures. I found myself immersed in cutting and pasting, cleaning, running errands, and being snatched up by other teachers who needed assitance as well.
Jonesboro middle school is not where I personally completed my middle school years, but as this is the school that my previous educator moved to, I chose to take the chance to meet and greet new faces, to broaden my spectrum of connections while earning knowledge from unknown, but reputable sources. I think a few of the teachers were astonished to see a rising high school junior back in the confines of a junior high classroom, eagerly waiting for the next task to be completed.
I worked from 12:30pm until 4:00 pm without breaking.

Hours: 3 1/2
