This past week has gone really well, I've taken a back seat to observe some teaching - so hopefully I'll get in there soon! There's not anything too interesting to write about, so instead I'm going to share a story that will make a great memory for me:
At lunch today, Kelly (another 3rd grade teacher) told me that a child in her class, we'll call him Jack, was talking about Mrs. Arnold. He apparently is a sweet kid with pretty funny remarks and today he asked Kelly, "What if...Mrs. Arnold had an assistant name Mrs. Schwarzenegger?!" Kelly said she just laughed and was thinking, 'Well, Schletzer is close'! And then our plan was made ;) We decided that at recess Kelly was going to introduce Jack to me and I was to play along as "Ms. Schwarzenegger". So later in the day, sure enough Kelly and Jack walked up to me and Kelly said, "Jack, I'd like for you to meet Ms. Arnold's assistant." I shook his hand casually and said, "Hey Jack! My name is Ms. Schwarzenegger. How are you doing?" Jack's eyes got SO big and a smirk slowly started to form. He just looked at Kelley and started giggling in excitement and said, "Oh.my.god!!! My joke came true!!!" I just laughed and went along with it for a few more minutes, until I finally burst his bubble and told him my real last name. To end the joke, I did tell him that if he couldn't remember my name, he could call me Ms. Schwarzenegger from now on ;) So, I'm expecting a lot of confusion with my last name in the coming days!
