My Internship!
Dates: I attended school every Wednesday from August 31, 2005 until November 4, 2005. At that point I began attending school everyday until December 9, 2005.
School: Valle Crucis Elementary; Watauga County Schools
Teacher: Ben Miller
Grade: Fifth
Responsibilities: Throughout the internship I aided Mr. Miller with housekeeping matters such as running copies, grading papers, handing out papers, taking things to and from the office, and answering the phone. I also helped by tutoring students before and during class with any trouble they might be having with homework or classwork. I helped with discipline problems by circulating the room while Mr. Miller taught and helping the students to focus.
Teaching Duties: I also taught several lessons that I have written myself including three math lessons and two social studies/ELA lessons. In addition to teaching these lessons that I have written, I also taught quite a bit from lessons that Mr. Miller had created. I have taught a unit on research papers as well as the majority of a unit on North America. More than one day passed in which I taught every subject in the room with the exception of pullouts.
