This week was very busy with open-house Monday, my first allergy shots Wednesday, and the first dance at LMS on Friday.
Open-house: First of all, it was so nice to meet a lot of the parents of the students I work with. The students were able to show their parents around the class and I was able to give parents a little brochure of exactly who I was and what we are up to in Spanish and Careers class. The funny moment of the night was when one parent asked me about on-line resources and I explained that students can access online dictionaries by googling "Spanish dic. . . . . . .tionary.com." Whoops! The father I was talking to explained that it would be a good idea to finish out the word. He laughed, I laughed, and turned very red.
the Dance: All I can say, or as a dear friend would say, "alls I know is," Justin Beiber can elicit outrageous responses from middle school girls (and boys); and that too many bodies with high temps means a smelly situation. It seemed like all the students had a great time.
