My mom talked to the principal of their  school and they okay-ed me coming over spring break!  In order to complete all of the hours, I’m going to have to spend a lot of time at the school, but I am not worried about that.  If I am home anyways, I would love to visit the school regardless to visit.  I might as well stay a while and help out!  The principal, Danielle Thompson, said I can do whatever tasks wherever I feel wanted and needed.  Since I will be there for a good amount of time, I will probably bounce around to different areas. 

For one day at the very least, I plan to work with my mom in her room.  This way, we can spend time together, and I already know her preferences and teaching styles.  I always graded her papers with her at home, too, so I will help her with that at night.  That way I can get some hours outside of the school day.  Another day, I hope to go see Mrs. Hodgin in the third grade wing of the school.  Mrs. Hodgin has been a teacher at Lantern Road since before I attended, and her husband was my fifth grade social studies teacher.  During the first semester of my senior year of high school, I was her cadet teacher so I got to work with her every afternoon.  She is a fun and spunky lady, so I hope to work with her, too!  I anticipate I will answer phones in the office during their breaks since I have experience with reception at the law firm I worked at last summer.
