School Based Experience

I just got back from visiting the school I will be at for the next week, St. Luke's Primary. It's located in Twinbrooks which is unchartered territory for me, but it just looks a lot like the suburbs of Belfast. I will be in a P6 class, 9 and 10 year olds who have heard I am coming all week. I met with the principal and teacher who's class I'm in. My teacher seems rather keen on the idea of me teaching sometime in the coming week, which should be rather interesting as I have no idea what to teach on, nor anything about their standards or what they are learning in this moment in time. Oh well, it is a learning experience that starts bright an early at 9 am on Monday morning and ends at 3pm Friday afternoon. I've been looking forward to this since I left and I can't wait to be back in a classroom.
