Snow.

So it began snowing on Friday night and it hasn't stopped since. Supposidly we're gonna have 42 days of snow :0 Hopefully we won't because I'm not really enjoying the snow anyways :L I don't really like the snow cause theres not much you can do apart from have snow ball fights and make snow men :L
The weather is going to be getting a lot worse, fingers crossed we'll get a few days off school :L

Work Experience

Its nearly a week back now from our work experience and I think everyone is still pretty tired from it all :L

For my work experience I went to work in Scoil Naomh Brid in Celbridge, I got to experience what it is really like to be a primary school teacher. I got sent to a junior infants class so I was pretty happy about that.
During the week I got to help the kids with anything they needed help with and I would do any jobs the teacher needed me to do for her. Also I had to type up worksheets for the kids and timetables. I found out that primary school teachers do a lot more work then I thought originally, I didn't know that they had to stay back after school and do planning for the next day.

After everyday there would always be some work to do and at the end of the day I was always pretty tired. But from this experience I learned a lot about myself and about being a primary school teacher.

Overall I enjoyed my experience and would consider being a primary school teacher as a career choice.

Back :)

Today is our first day back after midterm and I think everyone is pretty tired since last night was Halloween and most people were out (: . Personally mine was really good and I hope everyone elses was as well. Halloween was on a Sunday this year so there was no sleepovers and no staying out late :( This year the fireworks in my estate were rally cool, they were going off one by one and it was like a proper firework show. My midterm was really good this year and I finally saw Paranormal Activity 2 which was actually good and way better than the first one and also it was pretty scary :L.

Our first week of work experience is next week and I think everyone is pretty excited to start. I'm going to my local primary school Scoil Naomh Brid, where I also went to primary school so i'l be seeing some familiar faces :) I'm excited to go back there and to see what its like to be a primary school teacher.
