Capture the flag

Today we played capture the flag on the lower fielded with combined classes. It was a very challenging day, most of the kids did not listen when I was trying to organize them into groups and they were being disrespectful. A lot of the girls came up to me and said that they felt bad for me because no one was listening because I wasn't the teacher and they think they can get away with whatever they want. If this happens again I am going to try a new approach, if a kid is not listening and being rude to me I will make them do 10 push-ups or burppees for example. Today was the hardest day yet but now I can use this for future classes if this happens again. I will not tolerate kids being rude and disrespectful to me.

Circuit

Today I would give myself an A for being a TA for fitness today because I had a positive attitude and answered the questions they had about the workout and helped them. They did the circuit so I went around and cheered for everyone and gave them ideas for workouts if they didn't know what to do. It was a really good fitness day.

Third week

  This week was a really fun week with both day 1 and 2 classes. I'm getting to know the grade 8s and 9s better and they're starting to talk to me a lot more now. I really enjoyed helping the classes this week and playing capture the flag with vaughn's class was really fun. I really like both of the classes the kids are really nice and it's really fun to help them and talk to them, I am really enjoying being a TA for both classes.

Second week

  My second week with the kids in day 1 and 2 period 3 has been really good. I have been trying to remember everyone's names. I really enjoy helping with the class, talking to the kids, and answering any of heir questions. I really enjoy being a peer tutor for pe. This week we played atomic volleyball and one of the days I played with the kids, it was really fun. This week was really good overall.
