Wow talk about time flying! I have had the pleasure of sharing the learning experiances with Moturoa for the last month and what an action packed four weeks that has been. Allanah must be exhuasted by the end of each term.
With all the studying, assignments, and exams that have had to be done over the last year, spending time in the classroom has reminded me of the real reason why I have choosen to train as a teacher - the children. What a great bunch Moturoa are. I will surely smile when I remember some of the things that we have done together, although I do not think that my attempts at playing the recorder will make me smile, laugh perhaps.
Allanah has put so much time into my training and shown so much patience, that saying "THANKS HEAPS" can not start to cover it.
Thankfully today is only Wednesday and tomorrow is Pet day, so there is still time to fit more learning into what has already been a fantastic experiance. Although I would really love to bring my dog JJ to pet day, I think that being at school all day would not be very fair for her. So I have posted a couple of photos to share with you instead.
This is JJ when she was just a puppy. So cute and look how tiny she was. Her favourite things are: food, sleeping, food, playing fetch, food, swimming, food, going for a walk and did I mention FOOD. Her favourite person is me of course, oh and anyone that will feed her!

My First Week
Sunday, October 18, 2009I am very fortunate to be spending my first teaching placement at Appleby School. Moturoa have made me feel very welcome. Allanah has been patiently sharing her wealth of knowledge and teaching experience, which is just as well as I have a lot to learn!
The children and other staff here at Appleby, are very supportive and if the following three weeks are as interesting and varied as this last week, then I can tell that I will come away with some great experiences and probably a few good stories as well.
