I've never thought about blogging about my student teaching. It probably would have been to an excellent way to A) remember what I did and B) learn more from what has happened.
I suppose now is a good a time to start as any.
I've been having to do three preps each day for weeks now. The last two weeks I've been given a break because of some required school papers the kids have to write for their graduation portfolios. Tuesday takes the cake thanks to Sam Morrow. He decided to write a "song" to me while he should have been researching. Here is the extent of it:
Dear Mr. Hathaway,
I am sorry I am not working. I still like you cuz you is sweet and all. You are das baddest home boy of all and you keep it real all de time. You be so crunk itÂ’s off the chain. You are super fly for a white guy. Now here is a song I wrote about you:
Your name is Hathaway
You teach me everyday
You are so sweet
You tickeled your friends feet
You teach me history
And it makes me very happy
You wear goofy ties
And I can't lies
It makes me laugh
Like a shepperd with a staff
You come from Philly
Like that guy Smith, Willy
Were you in the show fresh prince of Bel Aire?
I really think it's cool your hair
You probably don't even care
You hate me so bad
Makes me very sad
I'm going to miss you
And could never forget what you do
You taught me so well
Mr. Hathaway you are swell!
Too Good! "You come from Philly, Like that guy Smith, Willy!" ...my kids.
I will miss them.
I will not miss waking up at 5:45am.
The links that I leave on this website (like the ADD blogger I am) relate (usually) to current events that I think I should share with my kids. Despite the inundation of irrelevant and bias news (good entry Libby http://libbyg-yo.blogspot.com/2005/11/news-you-will-never-hear-how-often.html ) I find that kids are curious about what goes on around them (though they might not admit it) and that a good story, even an important story, can get through to them.

Hey Mr. Hathaway, it's me Sam. I wrote you that song and I'm glad you like it. You are the sweetest student teacher next to Miss Newman, she was a babe. She had some hott feet let me tell you what. Anyway you and me should go bowling sometime. It'll be like Kingpin because you kind of look Amish and I only have one hand. Just kidding, but you do look Amish, but that's cool. I think you should give me an A because I am your favorite. My homework that you gave me one def. deserves more then that. It made you laugh. Can I please have a 10 :(. Well I really will miss you, because you make class fun. Your goofy laugh keeps me awake. I am gonna miss you but you'll be a great teacher. You should teach at Butler so I have you next year. But anyway good luck in your career and maybe someday we will meet again (like in star wars where anakin meets that chick that he likes but you are the chick because I don't look good in dresses)
Peace Out Mr. Hathaway
P.S. Ultimate Warrior is by far the sweetest wrestler
I'm scared to see Mr. Hathaway in a dress!!!
