Idlewood Elementary

I had a really good time visiting Idlewood Elementary on Thursday.  The minute I stepped into the first classroom, I got so excited!  I know I have a ways to go…and a lot to learn…but I can’t wait to start teaching!

One of my expectations of the elementary school was to talk with some of the former UACM students.  I spoke with Ms. Garry and Ms. Cunningham and both were very friendly, seemed really excited about teaching and loved their kids.  Both gave great advice, and were really helpful and motivating.

I was surprised to find that the number of students in the classrooms were so small.  I think that’s so good for the children because they will get more one on one interaction with the teacher.  I was picturing a high-needs school with too many children and not enought teachers.

I noticed the playful interaction between the children.  They seemed happy and eager to learn while well disciplined.

Overall I had a great day and can’t wait to get in the classroom!
