It's all in your head: Jessica J.

Where has the time gone?? Seriously, we're going into week three already and it feels like I've just stepped off the plane. I can honestly say that I am very blessed to be. I have learned so much, especially about myself. This past week I had the opportunity to teach a math lesson. First thing first, I love math, but teaching math and doing math...POLAR OPPOSITES. It has been so long since I've taught a math lesson  (student teaching semester was all about English). So imagine my bundle of nerves. I was really nervous about the whole thing, especially with the possible language barriers. And if you know me, sarcasm, anecdotes, analogies, etc. run rampant in my blood. 😆 But surprise, surprise it went far better than I thought.

          (Multiplication City...thank you Pinterest!)
My host teacher said she loved the lesson and wanted to know if she could use it for the future. Can I say I was shocked. Because on the inside I was freaking out to the nth degree. I guess it was all in my head.

Since day on my host family has been nothing short of welcoming. Even more so, their three little girls I am very fond of (they keep me on my toes). They are hilarious and VERY enegetic. I think at times maybe too much to where I think their parents feel they are a nuisance. Lol trust they aren't, FAR FROM IT!  Growing up in a house full of kids was my childhood. So even though I  have been made into a human jungle gym, played Monopoly Jr., watched Brother Bear a few times, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I guess you can say after school is our time. ❤❤
