october 23

today i got to volunteer in brooke's classroom for the first time, and i enjoyed every second of it.  one of the biggest differences between kindergarten and preschool is that i am never at the school.  with bus service, i very rarely have to step foot on school grounds.  i miss the day-to-day interactions and closeness that i felt with brooke's preschool(s).  so today i got a peek into a day in the life of a kindergartener.  it touched me to see the kids saying the pledge of allegiance, and i marveled over the way the kids fought to sit next to brooke and i during circle time.  i had to administer a benchmark-type test and saw a wide range of abilities.  i also offered to help mrs. nowak by taking home a project, which made brooke extremely happy.  brooke was so excited that she did the entire project (collating ABC books for each student) by herself after school today.  finally, we ended the day with brooke READING a Bob book all by herself for the very first time!!!  it was such an exciting moment for me.  what a great day!
