Summary:
I am working with one of the Kindergarten class in Sherman Elementary school. In this whole week I have been helping the students with their activities and sometimes I have a group of four students that needs help with math and English and also with the higher group. On Wednesday it was a short day for the students so I stay until 3:30 with my mentor talking and helping her do some stuff for the first day. So pretty much I do the same thing each day. In the mornings I have been going with a teacher, helping her stampings books which she is in charge of getting the books for the kids. It only takes me about an hour and half because I do a box each day. I bring my lunch everyday and my mentor, Lisbeth, Consuelo, and their mentor have lunch together in a classroom. Some challenges that I get is sometimes when I am with the group of kids and someone is not paying attention or not listening just doing what they want, but I overcome is if they don't want to be here they can go back what the others kids are doing. Also I am working to memorize each student names because sometimes I don't know all of them. I think I work with the students very well and sometimes they would call me Ms. Reyes if they need any help. Something interesting is that some of the students comes and hugs me and they tell me questions. If I would describe my internship to someone I would tell them if they like kids and have a little patients with them you would have a great time. I did like it it was an amazing experience.
