Week 4 Service at Thomas Edison Elementary

         As much as I was disappointed about being transferred out of my first class I am glad to say that I do enjoy working in my new class. The kindergartners are starting to warm up to me and talk to me and I do like talking to the kids they are funny. But I'm happy that they are better than my classmates Keegan and Chris' kindergarten class. I do feel bad for them because they have tough classes to work with. But I'm glad that my class is easier and that they pay attention and actually do there work. I get to give out stars to children who are paying attention and participating which makes them participate and pay attention even more. I am also glad but kind of sad to say that this kindergarten class is easier or more mature then my first grade class. My class is doing well and I hope they continue do do so in the future.
       Now for my first grade class. They weren't that bad this week and seem to be improving. Most of them are doing their work and listening to the teacher and I can tell the teacher Mrs. Hubell is really grateful for having me working with the kids. Yes, I'm still doing the same work where the kids read to me but I can see them improving in their reading to. In the first few weeks I could tell that they weren't practicing their reading because most of them would fail the reading test. I urged them to practice and it seems like they have because now most of the kids are passing the tests. I am extremely proud of my students.
