Rolling Readers of Space Coast #2
Reading this week was so enjoyable.  The students were excited to see me and to draw a character from a story, make connections and learn to add details to their stories.  This contained class is very unique.  The make up is so diverse but I have always known that one of the most important aspect of teaching in any classroom is the development of relationships.  I focussed the first class just on getting to know the students, sharing a bit about myself and where I come from and when I returned the next week I could see the investment of time paying off already.  I can't wait to return.  I had an interesting conversation with the teacher of the class about title 1 schools, funding, the make up of her students, the support she receives, the number of years she has been teaching, etc.  I am learning a great deal and look forward to learning more about the students and the school.
