Leading

I did not get the chance to lead the class in a lesson or anything, but I did really learn some things from watching their teachers. I know that it takes a lot of patience to work with children this age, and I was amazed that the teacher who came to work with our 4 year olds also went to a similar center and taught even more kids that age. She probably doesn't get paid very much, but a lot is required of her. It was a blessing to see where her heart is for her to do this for the kids. She was very firm in her speaking and directing, but not unpleasantly so. She demanded their attention when teaching them, and she got it. So many of the things the kids did were just adorable. Their songs, their love for Zach Dunbar, (the little girls were practically fawning over him, it was precious) and the way they learned. I loved the experience, and I know some new things about teaching that I didn't know before, like reviewing, having patience (and how important it is) and to know your audience when preparing lessons. I need to become the best teacher I can be, and have been inspired to become that.
