#future elementary teacher

[v-tired-queer]

I just had the best realization!

For context: I'm not a teacher yet, but I hope to be going to college soon to get a degree in Early Childhood Education and then become an elementary school teacher (hopfully) soon after.

I know that I want a rocking chair in my classroom for morning meeting time, reading time or carpet time in general so I can have a comfortable chair to sit in throughout the day. Today I was looking at different children's books and adding them to my Amazon list for my future classroom and out of curiosity, I looked up if they made a Rainbow Fish stuffed animal and they do! So I started looking for stuffed animals of a couple different characters from children's books and I'm very excited to report that they make quite a bit!

So then I thought about it even more and came up with an idea! What if before class starts each morning, I put the stuffed toy of the character from our reading time book on the rocking chair as a fun little hint to my class about the story we'd be reading? I know that they might not get it or get excited, but I thought it might be a fun idea, just incase a kid or two does notice and get excited for it.

I've also decided that I want to have a designated stuffed animal to be our classroom mascot. Then I could make them do fun things around the classroom for different activities or holidays. Like if we're having art that day, then they wear a smock and hold a paintbrush, or if it's St. Patrick's Day and there's a leprechaun loose in the school that visits our classroom (did anyone else's school do that?), then they could be at the center of the mess the mischievous leprechaun makes. Or if we have a field trip to the zoo, then they hold a map of local zoo and has a little packed lunch of pretend food.

I'm sure there are teachers that have already done these things, but I'm getting very excited to get to college and get my degree and by extension, I'm also very excited to become a teacher, and the more ideas I get the more excited I get!

#this has nothing to do with the rest of my blog but i got excited and my mom didn’t get the hype lmao #i know me so i know this isn't the last time i'll be talking about teaching sooooo #things related to teaching will be tagged 't teaches (eventually) 📚✏️🍎' for pre-degree #and 't teaches 📚✏️🍎' for post-degree #personal #aspiring teacher #future teacher #future elementary teacher #teacher #elementary school #elementary school teacher #education #early childhood education #t teaches (eventually) 📚✏️🍎

this is me projecting bc i work at a school and today was ROUGH LMAOOO

but professor nanami in a relationship with reader who’s an elementary/primary school teacher would be so cute because of the contrast of their work places, reader wears all these cute colorful things and is more bubbly and outwardly friendly whereas nanami is like a clean calm man with his neutral toned suits and like if you ever saw the two out in public you’d be shocked that they were involved with one another.

reader would admire how knowledgeable he was and could listen to him talk for hours about literature (i think that’s the topic you said you wanted him to teach) and nanami admires her composure and how loving she is with children (bro starts fantasizing about his own kids with her and then he realizes he’s in too deep 😭😭)

this is so cute??? omg….am I about to make a whole professor au….my god. imagine he’s going to pick up reader and all the moms are like crushing on this hot businessman, wondering if he’s a single dad. but he’s licking reader up in her colorful outfit and paint smudged cheeks (it was finger painting day - it got very intense).

….this is going on the list

#sab [anons] #sab [asks] #sab [future fics] #also I’m so sorry your day was rough!! #I hope it gets better bb! #I’m also planning a choso fic with a teacher who is elementary age children :) #so I hope you look forward to that as well :)

doctober 2023 || day 17 Einstein

xvii.

“Okay.”

Marty took a sip of his coffee, flattened his tuba tie, and returned to the helm of his class.

“Who can tell me” – he revealed Beethoven’s stormy portrait – “the name of this week's composer?”

The puzzled faces of the first graders made Marty smirk.

“I guarantee you’ve heard his music before.”

He hit PLAY on the CD player.

The robust, four-note motif of the Fifth Symphony lit up some eyes.

“Ashley, you look like you know,” Marty said to the bouncing six-year-old.

“That’s Einstein!”

“Uh…” Marty chuckled. “He does look a bit like Einstein with that hair, doesn’t he?”

I have so many fun facts about myself that aren’t really fun. They’re just like… mediocre. So I’d never bring them up when someone asks me for a fun fact, and they are too short to really be entertaining stories, so I just have a books worth of little events in my life that are only somewhat intriguing but they compose who I am. And I think everyone is like that to a degree. We’re all little stories that we don’t think are worth telling. Not because we don’t want to, but because we don’t think don’t think they’re worthy of being heard.

#no clue what to tag this #random thoughts with rowan #existentialism #random thoughts #so anyway have a few of these little tid bits about me #a stranger #as a child I cursed when I cut the tip of my finger off and my first priority was apologizing for cursing #I once pretended to be interested in the Navy and made an appointment with a recruitment officer just so I could take his mug ☕️ #I’ve had to pull tarantula fangs out of one of my coworkers #I once told a teacher that they couldn’t call my mom on me because she was in prison #I learned how to juggle because I thought it was imprsssive and then stopped practicing once I leaned that people thought it was lame #I had a bird named Devil who I only owned for two days before returning to the pet store after he attacked my mom #I set a bag of popcorn on fire by accident and the first thing I did was grab it with my hands #during my freshman year of high school I collected chapstick because I thought my future girlfriend would want to have options… #cont. and I never once wore any of the 60+ chapsticks of mine while kissing someone #instead of selling lemonade I used to sell painted rocks on a street corner #during a group project I forgot how to pronounce Ohio #In elementary school I told the lunch ladies I was allergic to wheat because I hated whole wheat and now I actually am #I know most of the lyrics to the songs from The Greatest Showman but have never seen it #as a child I thought plums were a made up fruit #I planned on joining the military out of spite against people telling me I would not have enjoyed it #I flooded a classroom and got doused by a chem shower on my second day as a lab assistant #and uhhh there’s more but have this for now #fun facts

I got Jennette McCurdy’s book after wanting it forEVER and I am so excited to read it after I finish my library books!!!!!!!!

#flashing #fast gif #milez electric #I’ve been reading a biography about Jim Henson and a book about Mr Rogers #I’ve been favoring the Mr Rogers book which surprised me because . well. motions to the obvious sense of bias at play here #the one about Mr Rogers is really captivating and it’s made me feel warm and fuzzy inside #it’s been very inspiring actually #Fred rogers is a bit of an idol to me #as someone who’s going to school for early elementary education #even if I find out that being a teacher isn’t for me along the way I still want to do good for children in the future whatever my career is #and again the way mister Rogers carried himself and his entire approach in presenting himself to his child audience #absolutely awe inspiring #anyways this post was about jennette mccurdy

So I was back to subbing at the elementary school today, which as I've mentioned is my favorite place to work. In some ways it's just the most comfortable to me; this is now my fourth year in a row I've had some kind of job associated with kids of that age group who attend that school, so I know a lot of the students and faculty. Actually, a lot of the faculty who work there today have been working there since I was a student.

Most of them recognized me immediately when I started showing my face there, like I didn't graduate from there over a decade ago, age 11. There was one para, who now works as a library assistant, but who used to monitor lunch and recess. I didn't remember her name but I knew her face. The first time she saw me subbing she was just like "oh, hi Diana."

I was talking to her this morning before school started because a first grade teacher unexpectedly called out, so I filled in for her for the first hour of the day before I started the job I clocked in for and a replacement could be found. But this library assistant usually leads the morning meetings with this first grade class and would help me with attendance and all those other beginning-of-the-day responsibilities.

She was saying to me "You know, why don't you work here full time? You're good with kids. You'd be good at it." In other small talk we'd had last year she had asked me similar things, like if I'd ever consider taking up a steady job at the elementary school, how my school was going, etc. I'm in between college right now but currently not taking classes. And I mentioned how I'm trying to take more sub jobs at the middle and high school so I get more well-rounded—that actually is the age group my education major is in. I've been working with the preschool-to-fifth-grade age range but my plan has always been middle-to-high school English.

And I was telling her about that, and I was like "You know what? When I tell people I want to teach older kids, some say to me stuff like 'oh you never know, you might change your mind'—and only recently I've been wondering if I really would. But I hate it when they're right!"

And that made her laugh. But it's true! I do really love working with the littles, as it turns out. Been doing it several years now. But in terms of anyone who's ever mentioned that to me unprompted, I wanna be like... hey, what do you know?!?!

#i have complicated feelings about it #my elementary school is a good place to work though. maybe i would be a para or smth full-time. id consider it #tales from diana #it's just. actually no one would ever say that to a man lol. that's probably why that bothers me #altho. i did actually get my one friend to start subbing in the district too. #male friend. my age. does other stuff for work so he doesn't sub as much as i do. #has the same level of education as me but has considered becoming a teacher someday and i was like 'why not try subbing?' #so i sent him the application and then that was that #and he. like a lot of men. doesnt primarily WANT to teach elementary or early childhood. #great news btw. a 5th grade teacher retired at the end of last year and one of the new hires is the first #male classroom teacher this school has had in YEARS. the only other male teacher is the gym teacher. thats SAD #but yeah so i was telling him 'i know u might be intimidated by working w kids but you should really try it' #'you might like it more than you think' #what's funny is tutoring and working in childcare didn't make me feel like i wanted to start teaching younger. at ALL #but subbing around has made me rethink it. but then again it also might just be #i get the most boring ass shit to do when i sub at the middle or high school. #subbing at an elementary school is so much more involved no matter what youre doing #with olders it's like. ok here's your assignment your teacher left you. sit at your desk and shut up #i realize the bias that is at play here making me reconsider my future path lol.

had a series of very weird semi-lucid dreams within dreams about being a minor character in a reality show loosely based on the fresh prince of bel air. i thought i was just having another dream about a lame family reunion until will smith showed up

#there was like a hugely #depressed shamanistic psychiatrist character who kept trying to convince me to do something useful with my lucid dreaming powers but #all i did was make tom selleck kill anyone who was annoying me #i don’t know why he was there either #for some reason this was the near future and everyone had paper thin iphones with instant solar charging #i got stuck in a runaway RV with groups of coworkers multiple times #and to cap that all off for some reason i had to go on a hike while my elementary school drama teacher who looks like willem dafoe explaine #d to us the history of aperitivos #with examples #my elementary school drama teacher did actually look like willem dafoe btw that part isn’t a weird dream thing #dream #another random detail: amal child who asked for help carrying his luggage upstairs but all he had was a doll sized pair of cowboy boots #which he then proceeded to wash in the bathroom sink after i touched them

Not super aesthetic but I’m back and here’s my set up 🥰 that’s all that matters. This semester is teaching STEAM and I’m so excited because STEM is already aesthetic enough but integrated with the arts??? How neat is that?! So I’m excited to get back to uni on Monday, see my friends and get started on my assignments.

And I can’t wait for winter, of course. It’s going to be lovely this year, even if it doesn’t turn out exactly like I’m picturing it I know that I’ll still have enjoyable moments to share ❤️.

do you ever think about shit that happened to you as a kid and go huh! that's kinda fucked up that happened!

#sage talks #when i was in first grade i watched a kid eat legos out of a bin and so i told the teacher and she called me a tattletale #first grade was fucked up. my mom would volunteer to read to us in a separate room and once i just. didn't feel capable of going back to #class. so i just stayed with her for an extra hour and she walked me back #and when my mom left my teacher told me if i ever did that again she'd never let my mom into the school again #which like. hey maybe Don't say that to a kid #catholic school was fucking wild dude #fun fact you don't need a teaching license to teach in a private school! #god. anyway. my education was fucked up in elementary #yes i did genuinely believe males have one less rib than females because of the bible #my art teacher was also shitty and kinda told me i had no future in art. i draw out of spite for her

sooo i kinda disappeared for quite a while, but oh well, i'm here now.

the entire october was honestly a mess: there was so much stuff at the same time, i am still rather overwhelmed even though currently i am dealing with just the last few bits of the slowly dying flame that is my practice at school as a teacher. thankfully, it has just ended, so now i am left with a few papers and assignments to fill in, and then this unit is done for good.

to summarize all of the things that happened into a short list:

i moved from one parent to another, accompanied with my dog;

my dog kept getting sick for different reasons, this month we visited the vet more than in the entirety of the last year;

i taught 3 classes at school, 2nd grade level;

i taught one extracurricular class, 1st grade level;

made a group project with other students and kids from 3rd grade;

speedrun my practice diaries (assignments we have to do during our practice at a school) in two days;

learned how to cook some basic soups;

learning how to bake pancakes;

decorated my room, so now it finally feels like home.

as one might be able to notice, that's quite a list. there definitely could be even more, but thankfully fate spared me from more stress than i could already barely handle. but hey, on the bright side of things, i have grown quite a lot as a young adult, and all those troubles showed me that i am stronger than i anticipated myself to be (which is a big revelation for me).

i am very glad for everything turning out the way it did, and now i finally have some energy and emotional resources back to focus more on my hobbies and interests. isn't that wonderful?

🌍 If you have no astrocartography lines passing through the country you lived for most of your life, you probably don't feel at home in that country and have always wanted to relocate to another country

🌍 When you have atleast 2 lines "conjuncting" each other through a certain country, the planet that is more dominant in your birth chart will have a higher effect in astrocartography

🌍 Mercury IC line can show where one of your siblings or cousins relocate at some point during their life

🌍 If you're a girl and you have daddy issues (hey, we don't judge here!!), travelling to Saturn DSC line will likely bring you lots of opportunities of meeting your perfect partner, but also harsh lessons regarding control in a relationship (this is a good line for you to heal your daddy issues)

🌍 If you want to meet your future spouse and you (personally) find international guys attractive, travelling to Jupiter DSC line is a very good idea. Your future spouse might also be a foreigner in that country, just like you :)

🌍 Sun ASC line shows you where you can find your life's purpose. Also your depression:📉📉 0%, while your happiness:📈📈 100% (unless your Sun is in your 8th or 12th house, then the mental health effect is the complete opposite)

🌍 You could give birth on your Moon IC line😳 or your mom could have given birth to you on that line

🌍 Venus ASC line shows you where you could take lots of pictures (of yourself, of the sightseeings). Also, where you could get diabetes where you will want to try every type of sweets you find there

🌍 You will either get very drunk, consume drugs or smoke some weird shit on your Neptune ASC line (pls take care of your health)

🌍 You could randomly meet an ex or someone who resembles your ex while travelling to your Chiron DSC line
