Donald, I treated so wonderfully by the Kindergarten and first grade teachers. I cannot even begin to descript how welcomed those teachers made me feel, but I know I have never felt so honored to be at any other school that I’ve volunteer or intern at like I did at L.O Donald. It may be because it is so close to summer or that it was the last Friday of the school year but all the teachers and staff I was able to meet were all so kind. At this school I spent the day with Ms. Sherely, Ms. Garza and Mr. Alvarado all teachers in the same hall who from what I saw really got along. Their classroom were all very different but the one I was impressed by the most was by Ms. Alvarado. I was able to spend a small amount of time with him and his class and I saw the most organized well trained class. The class was attentive to the teachers instructions, well behaved except for a very few students and over all extremely well-disciplined students. In Ms. Garza’s class the thing I was most amused by was a student contract and “happy dice”. Ms Garza believes her 1st graders should be held responsible for their actions therefore she created the students social contract saying that they will respect each other, work together, share, help, be nice and so on, the students all signed it and agreed to it. The happy dice is an excises they do in the class to share and better know each other, the students pass around a dice and share something happy that they did that
