Testing is over for the year and we are finally back to a normal lab
schedule. It's not really a normal school schedule because there are
still field trips and lots of assemblies, but it is as normal as it
is going to get. And there is no more testing. Did I mention that?
I think the teachers and myself are more excited about this fact than
the kids.
This morning I read with kindergarteners and then took a few pictures
for the yearbook. I am getting pictures of people who weren't here
for actual yearbook pictures. I managed to get three today and that
leaves me with a handful to get tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow. The
goal is to have it all done by Wednesday and then compile what I have
with what the parent has that I am working with. Then she can drop
it at the printers on Thursday, a day early, just in case there is
something we need to change. I will be happy when it is done because
it is kind of stressful, even though I am only responsible for the
class pages.
I continued working on my spreadsheets and note card labels. My
spreadsheets have all the scores entered I just need to get the
averages sorted out. For the note card labels, I have to finish the
percentiles for one more class and then do the DIBELS scores for
fourth and fifth grade. So I'm getting there.
I took a break from that to recreate a survey for one of the resource
teachers. She had a hardcopy of a sample and she wanted that, minus
the part where it said “Sample”, and she wanted one of the
questions removed. I asked her if instead of removing one of the
questions I could just put in my own. We thought it would be funny
to see if the principal would catch it. So I typed up the real one
and then I added in a question along the lines of “The school
should allow the computer aide to be acting principal once a week.”
The resource teacher wasn't in her room when I went to give it to
her so I made sure to put a pink sticky note on the fake one, saying
that it wasn't real and pointing to the fake question. So hopefully
that doesn't get screwed up. The principal will appreciate the joke
but probably not so much if the fake survey actually went out.
After school I took a nap, eventually had dinner, and then spent my
night watching YouTube videos and working on my signature. One of my
summer goals is to improve my handwriting and I figured I should
start with my signature. I filled a few sheets of paper writing my
first name over and over, and then trying to figure out a new capital
'R'. I think I have my first name figured out. I am going with
bigger loops because currently I have gotten stuck with a very thin
and sad looking letter. I am also turning the bottom loop into a
line under the rest of my first name. I think it looks good. Much
better than what I have been writing.
When I tired of that, I caught up on my recordings. I made one for
Friday through Sunday and then made one for today. It is so easy to
miss one day and then miss a bunch. The same holds true for journal
writing. I need to get better at that. Not the journal writing. I
still do that every day. But the recording.
