Preschool teachers are an interesting bunch

So since working has kept me on my toes this week on top of fighting off a cold that keeps attempting to take over I realized I have not blogged in a long time! So today as I sit here getting ready for my week I thought of something I was told this week by a dad. "Preschool teachers are interesting" I wondered why he said that but didn't want to ask so I came up with my own list as to why we are.

1. We have a high pitched sing song voice when talking with all kids


2. We love recycled items(like cereal boxes, TP tubes, plastic containers and other household items that we can re-use)


3. We have a song for almost any occasion


4. We call everyone our friend


5. We have paint and playdough in our nails or on our fingers


6. We can see the potty dance moves in any kid be they 2 or 6 years old


7. We get excited over new paint


8. We appreciate nap time


9. We love snacks


10. We love a good children's books!

Ok so I could go on but there are somethings that I think would make a dad say that about a preschool teacher of to be honest any teacher of kids under age 7.

So in light of that I am going to work on gathering my recyclables for the weeks plans. As the aide I am responsible for some outside activities and art. This week my plan is a rainbow gelatin sensory tub, and some paints. I only have 1 day as an aide this week since I sub by myself Tuesday.
