Fifth Day November 19, 2013

Tuesday November 19was my fifth day working at the Hillside Preschool. Since it was raining we stayed inside the whole time I was there. It was a bit chaotic because the kids were inside all day and were not able to burn their energy. Some of the children were playing with puzzles, legos and others colored. I stayed were the children were coloring to see if any of them needed help. Some of them asked me to spell their names even though they knew how too so I pretended to not know how and asked them if they could spell it for me. My little plan worked because I assured them that I didn't know how to spell their names and that they did know so they showed me how to do it. While they showed me, they kept asking to see if they were doing it right. I noticed that they just wanted someone to tell them or ask them to do it themselves. Basically they needed someone to encourage them to do something. My goal for next time is to keep encouraging them so that they will do things on their own.
