Job Title

So once again my cuz Laurie brings something to my attention. Gee, since I live way over here in Germany a lot of our family members don't know what I do for an occupation. Great guess by the way about me being a teacher. My official title is "Para Educator" or better known as a " Teacher's Aide". I absolutely love it! I think I love working with 4th graders really more than the job itself. My responsibility is to shadow a student with autism but there are 3 other students in the class that were in need of a teacher's aide. So I ended up with four students that I help with language arts (grammar), any subject where there is a lot of reading, and math. My workday starts at 8 a.m. and ends at 12:45 p.m. and I have a 45 minute lunch in there. The hours are great since we home school Kaylin. She does her studies while I'm at work and then we go over her homework when I get home. You would think that I like teaching or something?! LOL I remember that I really didn't like school all that much when I had to go but now I just can't get enough of it. HA! Well. . . . that is all I really have for today. Man, I am getting good this is two days in a row that I've blogged.

I wouldn't have guessed it from you Windi. That's sounds like a very rewarding day. Do you plan to do something like that when you get back?
