As I walk from the lunch room to back to the class I look around smile, laugh, smirk, or whatever face I might make. I think back to when I was in school and realize I acted the same way, dressed similar, and has a personality that caught peoples attention, good or bad.
This week I have really come to see how we shape students lives and are able to mold them into the young leaders they can be. I have a student who makes you bet against all odds but than in the smallest moment surprises you and I think , wow, this kid has a chance.
This week has been crazy with different bell schedules and gearing up for the blood drive. In the AFNR class as part of the community service they are running the FFA blood drive that will be held on February 20, 2015. They have had to make committees, come up with ideas, and the one group even taped a commercial. I started teaching the honors mechanics class this week, which to be honest I was nervous and scared all at the same time. Being a girl and teaching a class of 22 guys was a little intimidating but after the first day with them those nerves have gone away.
As for next week I will be diving into careers and SAE with the AFNR class. With these SAE projects they will be doing the agri science research projects as a required assignment. For the mechanics class we will be finishing SAE and starting the tool gauge and drill bit sharpening. I learned out to draw the tool gauge and need to learn how to sharpen a bit but I am getting there.
