Conclusion
March 28th, 2016 was my last day of the second practicum. Before the day, I prepared a small gift for the children. I packed gummy bears in a small patch and put on a message on them that said “I am BEARY happy you are in the class.” I also made a card for the teachers for showing the to show appreciation for having me over; I attached an origami paper crane on it. Before the story time in the afternoon, the teachers gave me time to re-visit the activities that I implemented. I sit sat on the a chair in front of all the children, who were sitting down on the carpeted floor on a carpeted area like they do during story time. I told them that talked to them about how we learned about dinosaurs, St. Patrick's Day and spring and thought of the activities and the circle times. I also showed them some of the props and their art works to recall bring back their memories of those fun times. After that, I thanked to them all and showed the gift I brought for them. The children excitedly said, “Gummy bear!!” Then I told them to tell me about what was a fun to do memory they have with me and they could have one. They started to raise their hands to and waited for me to call their name. One by one they told me the activities that they liked the most. Most of them told me the snack activity that where they made a dinosaur using bread, chips, and fruits. Some of them liked a water activity, a gross motor activity, art activities, and a table activity. At the end, I also gave the card for to the teachers. When I showed the children, one boy said, “Pteranodactl!!” It was great to work here to improve my guidance and caring. I'm really thanked thankful to for all in this daycare and MTI for setting up this these opportunities.I'm very sorry for marking so many things on your note! Don't get discouraged! Your English is very good! Tenses and conjunctions seem to be tough for you right now (they can be very difficult to learn and understand), but your sentences are really good! With tenses a simple rule is to add an "ed" at the end of action words (verbs) if you are talking about things that happened in the past, but this won't work for all of them so be careful!
I really enjoyed reading this note and liked learning about your experience with the daycare. If you have any questions about English or my corrections send me a message, okay?
