This week was interesting having Monday be a snow day, and then Tuesday having a two hour late start. It was a fun week though with the literacy groups. The kindergarten students in my class started working on writing sentences with basic rules like the two finger spacing between words and making sure their lower and upper case letters were proper format. On Friday there was presentation by a group of retired school teachers that read 3 different stories to the kindergarten class. Each adult having a different character in the book. The adults got really into the performance and the students loved it. Before and after each story they discussed aspects of the stories and the characters. It was a very interesting day, I enjoyed being able to be apart of it. Also on Friday professor Froemming stopped by to check on the field experience. It was fun talking with her, my CT, and fellow scsu classmate. I look forward to hearing about other student's field experiences.

Oh, also I have experienced how a class acts when a substitute teacher is around, and  it is just as I remembered it being when I was a student their age. The kindergarteners seemed to forget the classroom rules and try to get away with things because their regular teacher wasn't there. The sub allowed myself and my scsu classmate to be more involved in the morning literacy activities, so that was a great experience.
