I had my post-observation conference with my principal today. She had a lot of really positive things to say about my teaching, which was wonderfully comforting. I am feeling so so lucky to have such an amazing principal this year! It really makes a world of difference.
I feel like I'm running out of cute and funny stories to tell. Maybe because I'm becoming cynical or maybe because their annoying tendencies are overshadowing any cuteness.
Today, as Zoe was coming over to my table for reading groups, I saw something bright green peek out of her mouth for a second. I asked her what was in her mouth, and she just stood there and stared at me and refused to move or say anything or open her mouth at all for several minutes. I just kept asking her what she had in there, like she was an actual baby. Or a puppy. Except that with a baby or puppy I would just force their mouth open and stick my hand in there, but I obviously couldn't do that with her. Eventually, probably because she could see that I was getting seriously mad, she spit a little beaded bracelet out of her mouth.
Oh the joys of teaching first grade!
