. I worked until 11 last night, so I'll have to miss the faculty meeting today to finish planning my lesson. There are some last minute tidbits I think about adding in. I suppose this is a bit of a mistake since there is a teacher retiring this year from this school. My observation teacher makes sure to let me know this. As exciting of an opportunity as this is, I really want to travel before I settle down with a job. I know maybe this sounds crazy with the job market being so dismal, but I am a strong candidate even without the traveling aspect, and I will only be stronger once I return.
My observation teacher is sick and has been out the day before, so it is great for him that I take over and teach the first three English classes. My lesson goes better than any lesson so far. The kids are engaged. They laugh a lot. I took a long time thinking about this lesson and planning it, and I'm overjoyed that it goes over well. Some kids bring in food, and everyone made me a goodbye card the day before. As non-emotional as I am, I'm blown away by the kids' and my observation teacher's genuine good wishes and thanks for the help I provided. I'll miss them too.
