I didn't have too many learning goals for this semester that were different from last. I did want to speak more Spanish in the classroom and also have the students call me Miss Hott instead of Molly. I also wanted to be more organized.
So far, I don't speak much more Spanish in the class than last semester only because in Spanish 1 they would not be able to understand me and I don't want to be seen as the crazy Spanish tutor who no one can understand :)
As far as being called Miss Hott, my students now do call me that and I think it makes me seem less like a student and more like a teacher figure, someone who can actually help them and not just someone who's observing and doesn't know anything.
Lastly, I do feel like I've been more organized this semester, in part because of the chart we had to make. I actually think that helped a good bit. I still need to get my activity for EDUC 400 in about teaching a small group but I think I may just do two large group lessons. I want to do one lesson about the culture of Spain and some of their foods and then I know that my teacher wants me to teach a short Zumba class so I will probably combine that with a short lesson about the dances, where they come from, etc.
So far though, I'm really happy with my new class :) Hope everything is going well in your school, Claire! :)
