Cute Kindergarteners
As my student teacher greeted Kindergarteners at the door on says, "Hello Mr. Bumblebee!" Cute, I thought because he is teaching them a Bumblebee chant to work on loud and quiet. As they leave that day the student comes up to me and says, "You know why I call him Mr. Bumblebee?" I of course replied because of the Bumblebee chant. She says, "No? Because I don't know his name!!"

Thursday, January 17
I have a very well prepared student teacher. He has jumped in and is taking over with confidence and skill. Everyone should have a students teacher at some point. I have started remembering all of the little things I used to do to make life easier.
Today it is transferring sleep position, ready position, playing position from first grade rhythm sticks to fourth grade precorder.
- sleep position (instruments on the floor, no sound)
- ready position
(with sticks it was on the knees, no sound; with pecorders it is at the chin no sound.)
- playing position (time to play)
