I have had some pretty fantastic opportunities to substitute teach this semester. I always enjoy subbing for band best. I have also subbed for art class which made me slightly suicidal. Who knew how yarn could break fans, kids enjoyed painting faces and clothes and glue could be so powerful. I have done a lot through west genny too with the elementary general music classes. I am such an awful singer, but when teachers leave clear lesson plans all goes well. Hopefully at that age they don't care much about my voice as long as they are having fun. It is only embarrassing when TA's are assisting the class and hear me haha. A teacher just called a few minutes ago and I will be doing kindergarten through third grade gen. music at each hill (where I went to elementary school) and split rock. That should be interesting working at the school I attended back in the day. Gosh, I can't believe I'm turning 24 in less than a month.
Yesterday I subbed for a fifth grade class and to be honest, it was my favorite yet to sub for. It was fun doing science, math and social studies with them. They were well behaved and I feel I actually taught them something. To be honest it somewhat made me wonder because I have always known I wanted to teach, I just hope music is the right vehicle for me to do so.
