Happy Wednesday!

Just thought I should give a quick update on what's been happening lately.

I have a student teacher in my class right now. Of all the cohorts and student teachers I have had, this one is the best, she's really on top of things, listens and asks for suggestions, and knows her stuff. Not only is she a pretty good teacher, she and I have some good conversations about non-school stuff as well. She has been in the class for 3 weeks now (I think) and is slowly taking over more and more of the teaching day. This week I am only teaching writing and that is the last 45 minutes to an hour of the day. I have been bored out of my mind having nothing to do. Next week she will take over the entire class next week and I should also be out of the room so I will be hanging out in the faculty room for two weeks. When I'm in the faculty room I will be able to work on my masters portfolio so I should get most of it done.

On another note: My little brother is engaged! He proposed two weeks ago and they will be getting married in June. I'm going bridesmaid dress shopping tomorrow with my future sister-in-law.
