Adventures With Free Time

I can say that I did more today than yesterday.  I got to start out my day at school by rolling and counting coins for our student store.  While doing that, my principal asked my co-workers and I to drop something off at the post office.  We really enjoy taking "field trips" to take us from the monotony of the faculty room so we jumped at the chance to leave.  On the way back, we picked up a Coke for our co-worker.  From there I went to observe my student teacher teach a reading group lesson.  The secretaries at our school had a training meeting today at the same time our principal had a principals meeting, so I got to babysit the office and answer the phones.  We handed out three bags of ice for bumps and bruises and at least ten band aids in the two hours we were there.  Most of the people who came or walked through the office were surprised to see us in charge, like we don't know what we're doing or something.  After that, I hid in an office while I read aloud to my co-worker a book that our principal asked us to read.  With an hour left in the day, I found a few things to do and people to talk to and then I waited until school was out to go home. So, nothing too crazy but busy enough to keep me mostly entertained.
