Week 2

This week was a rough week. I started feeling sick during the beginning of the week. I went to the daycare on Tuesday morning. Every time I am there it seems as though there is always a different teacher there. Which is hard for the children because they are not able to follow the same routine everyday. I noticed they only follow directions for certain teachers. The teacher who was there on Tuesday was one I never met. I could feel the vibes that she thought that I was just going to get in the way. But I made sure to ask if she needed help with anything. I mainly felt the need to be in charge on one little boy named Anthony. He is only 2 1/2yrs old, and doesn't really talk yet. It seems as though because he is the smallest in the class he wants to make his presence known which is the reason he gets into trouble more than the other children. Towards the end of the morning, Debbie who is the person who runs the daycare was able to sit down with me, and give me the information they use to evaluate the children. They look at things such as motor skills, communication skills, etc. Which is a big help to me while I am there so I have a better understanding with the way they do their routines.

The next day I went to the doctor and found out that I had Bronchitis. Which of course I wasn't happy about. I didn't want to go to the daycare and get the children sick, so I was home sick for a few days. I am finally feeling better and planning on being back at the daycare this Tuesday!
