Practice (What did you see in the classroom or surrounding environment?)

The day I arrived was library day It is when the students take turns going to the library and the rest have a study hall. They had a new procedure when four random kids go and when they come back they cross out their name and give the passes to the person whose name is under them. Only one kid forgot to give out the pass and for the last ten minutes of the class, they were allowed to talk. I sat in the back of the class and noted how silent and studious they were. It was a very obedient class with plenty of respect for the teacher. I introduced myself and they listened with an avid expression.





Reflection (What do you think about what you saw in Practice?)
I was amazed at how good they were. I, myself, was taught in a private school, so I was a little scared about how public school was. The kids listened and studied when the time presented itself. They did not have whispered conversations and minded their own business without staring at the window daydreaming. I was blown away at this. I was also a slightly thrown off when I was addressed as Ms.Huth-Fretz. I recognized the teacher as my former instructor at the YMCA for workouts. I spent most of my free time trying to place her face before I realized it was her.
