Observations
This past week in my class we were learning about safety rules. One of the activities we did with the kids was having them come up with their own safety rule and drawing a picture for it. It was awesome to see the imaginations of the kids minds work while they were telling us their safety rules. One of the rules a kid made up was, "Call 911 when someone is robbing the bank." I thought the kids did very well using the knowledge and imagination to make these safety rules for themselves.

Learning Experiences
While helping my kids in small groups, I am consistently reminding myself how I must be patient with my kids. They are very young and need help learning the easy things. Sometimes that can become frustrating because you want them to know it already but they just don't. My patience is becoming better and better every time I work with my kids. I love that while I am teaching my kids, I am also learning. I learn so much from those kids and it is great to spend time with them.

Reflections
We did not go field experience on Wednesday and even my pre-k kids noticed that I wasn't there. I thought it was so cute to hear my teacher tell me that my kids were freaking out because I was supposed to be there and I wasn't. It was cute to see that my kids are starting to learn the pattern of me being there one day and then not the next and they noticed that I was missing one day.

Stories
My kids have started a new thing where they fight over who gets to hold my hand while we walk down the hallway. They will get so annoyed with each other if they are not getting to hold my hand. I try my best to just not let any of them hold my hands so they do not get mad with each other but it never works. They just constantly fight over who can hold my hand until we arrive to the destination we are headed.
