I have started student teaching at an awesome school here in LA. This is my fifth week and it's the best! The population is primarily Latino and the class is a bright third grade class with an extremely talented master teacher as my mentor. I love it. I incorporate Spanish words when I teach, with help from my spanish speaking BF Spencer, and I have especially enjoyed teaching them Reading. It's fun to talk about the stories we read, predict what we think will happen, and read dramatically!
Today there was a wonderful display of the artwork from the students around the school. It's a privilege to be at this school and teach these kids.

I think we're at the point where you can just refer to him as Spencer. Unless you just really like reminding us of the fact that you have a boyfriend!
I bet Linds just wants to make sure that we don't get this Spencer confused with Eliot's daddy, right Linds :)
Glad to hear that your speech and drama training is being put to such good use in the classroom!
I'm glad you are teaching your students how to read dramatically - they will learn so much more than just reading monotone. You're doing great & I'm glad you are excited about your soon-to-be new career. Teaching is the best!!

Love the artwork. You have some very talented students. Teaching is a challenging but rewarding career. You can make the world a better place!
Of course you would be the best teacher ever. I remember my third grade teacher...Miss...Ok I can't remember her name but she had red hair and was too grumpy. That's what I remember.
