My cooperating teacher told me she watched my film and found it sad at times.
After I left school Friday, a friend of mine who teaches at Frazer gave me a call. She stopped in to my class when I was doing my first kindergarten lesson and asked me if the principal had talked to me and told me said she'd give me a call later so she did. She was kind of like I dare them to say something to you about your car and I'll fill you in on what I've heard. So from what she's heard, my car is catching people's attention at the school. One of her 2nd grade students saw my car and said to her, "There's a rainbow fagbug outside!" and said how cool it was. She said she didn't explain it to him but found it neat to see how much he liked it. Then a teacher told her he noticed the car and my friend told him to look up the website and see why "she" drives it. He said who is she? She told him I'm student teaching in the art class. She shared the story with him let him know that he should pass it on.

The vice principal that thought I was 20 was supposed to be watching the students get on the bus but instead she was upstairs talking to someone about my car saying that it's not appropriate and shouldn't be parked outside the school. My friend was upset about this because she was supposed to be with the kids and no one was out there and she asked why she was missing and was informed that the fagbug was concerning her so she was more concerned with the fagbug then the kids well being.
My friend seemed to know where I park everyday, certain days I was closer than others. In general I'm not parking directly in front of the building but a few cars away. It's a public street so I am not concerned about it. I have a lot to back up my story so I welcome it if they try to ask me to move it.
My cooperating teacher was out sick today so I had a substitute in the class. I was able to do my lesson I had started with the 7th grade class on Friday. They are doing a collage. One of the students wasn't there the first day I met with them so I caught her up. The project consisted of having everyone in groups of two, so since we had an uneven number of people I partnered with her. Since I had some time off since my cooperating teacher wasn't there I took the time I had to work on my collage for Rosie and got that done.
I came up with a lesson to do Art Around The World with the 7th graders when their class is divided Tuesday through Thursdays. I asked them last Thursday what countries they'd like to focus on and they came up with: Yemen, Vietnam, Honolulu (state), Italy, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. I decided to focus on the flags and have them create an international flag. I worked hard on my lesson over the weekend and was able to get my teacher example for the flag lesson done during the day.
The last period, in the 8th grade class, one of the asian students said "Colaroma, I'm Gay." So that was the 10th time the kids in the class have made a remark using gay terms. I asked him what Colaroma means and he said nothing so I just wrote it down. So far all the comments have only come from 2 tables and all have been from boys 100%.
