CRCT Over!

     Finally, the week of testing is over. I didn't like the testing week becuase we  had to be quiet, too quiet. You know on our school we work hard, and we are smart. However, I don't like testing because I can't take the silence of the room. The class and the whole school is so quiet. You can even hear the air-conditioner running. Also, I don't like testing because there is this girl that we always have to wait for her. I think that the whole people in the 4th and 5th grade had to wait on her. The best thing about the CRCT is the movies and free time.

The BEST thing about it is that it is OVER.

Our Big Learning Parade!

Today I went from a good attitude to a really good attitude. Mrs. Davis had our class blog up on the screen, and I knew right away that it was going to be a great day. First, we started out to read our comments from the teachers to be. I got good comments from many teachers-to-be, and I was surprised that some of them were from Canada! However, I liked all the comments, and then I posted comments to some of them.

The next thing we did was go to the place of where the teachers to be did their own weblogs. Mrs. Davis assigned a person’s weblog, mine was Amanda’s Blog. Anyways we opened up this program called Word. The group got a part from the person’s weblog and copied that piece into Word. I got the URL from that web site that is what Mrs. Davis told us to do. We always practice a new skill before we move over to the weblog.

We started another thing. We had to do a story to the teacher-to-be that Mrs. Davis assigned us. We couldn't do the stories on the Internet because it didn’t let us. I did want to post this story on the internet because it is less trouble because you got to copy and paste and then copy again just in case it erases. Would you like to use the internet or the computer? Which do you think is better?

   This is one of the teacher-to-be's part of her weblog. Her name is Amanda.

I think that students being able to communicate through the computer is wonderful. Today children are growing up with technology all around them. They use computers everyday and being able to write and communicate with others through the computer is a great idea. 

Here is my response.

I know that it is a good idea to have computers because if we didn’t, I wouldn’t want to be in this group because most of the work I’ve done has been on the computer. Also, imagine how much time we would waste writing. I think technology is one of the most important things in the world. So if we didn’t have technology you wouldn’t be reading this right now. Would you think that a life without technology is miserable?

Dear Teacher To Be

Dear teacher to be,

    Are you going to be glad because you are going to be a teacher? I hope you and other student teachers make out to be teachers someday. I am eleven years old, and my birthday is on September 23, 1993. My favorite sport is soccer, what is yours? I know that you are going to be nervous on your first day of school and excited. I felt that same way when I entered kindergarten.

  I'm not going to be a teacher when I grow up, but I know some things about teaching. Try to be nice to your students but not so nice because your class will go nuts. Also, try not to give students so much homework that they don't have time to do anything else at home. They might end up hating you. That is bad because then they will not pay attention to you.

Another thing is that if you go to recess give them about 20 minutes of recess. So that their brains could take a break. The last thing is that you should make learning fun by giving projects and things to color. It keeps students focused on what they are learning. Well I have no more ideas about teaching. I wish you good luck and maybe you could be my teacher someday.
