Well I did another day of casual today, and loved every minute of it! I was on an I.O class in a school I’ve done regular casual at. After having a year of working in Special Education in 2010, I forgot how much I enjoy it and how wonderful the children are.
I was covering whilst the class teacher was undertaking some Accelerated Literacy training (in school) so she had left me the day plan, which was good as it helps keeps the kids settled and in routine. While the day was similar to my own class, once upon a time, I loved some of the resources they had – again, similar to what I have previously created, but slightly different, and in a way I wouldn’t have before considered. The first was the Morning circle routine, and I after going through the day, date, weather etc the children are sent back to their desks to complete a ‘daily diary’ activity – which is simply them writing out the day, date, weather etc.
