One of the best days at my school so far. We started off the day combining two of the classes, it came to about 16 kids. They do a kind of like a life skills circle and they talk about everyday events, crime, politics, and sex. Its a space where they can feel comfortable and safe to ask questions and talk about experiences that they have had. Todays topic was crime. The teachers asked if crime was good or bad and then the kids had to go around and say what they felt about its and why. It was interesting to see what their answers where. That lasted up until break, after break we started working on are mothers day cards. We taped around their half sheet of white paper and then had them cut out shapes in tape and place them all over the paper. When they where done they had to paint the paper that was showing, any colors that they wanted. It will soon become a card. It was so grate to start talking with the teachers and the kids are starting to recognize me as a safe fun person. I love the kids so much they are alway happy and trying to learn new things. During lunch I went and played with some of them on the slide and the seesaw. The playground is so small and all metal so it gets really hot for them to climb on. Any ways after lurch I worked with the next group of kids on their mothers day cards. I don't think I will ever get board at my school their is something different to do with the kids every day, computers, home ec, art, gardening, and life skills. I think that the school I am at is amazing and the teachers have been their a long time. I am so exited that I can get a ride home on the special ed buss it saves me a bit of money and I might be abel to get a ride their in the mornings as well. I will take some picks of the school tomorrow hopefully because I know I got a request for that. Any who when I got home I relaxed for a bit and then cooked dinner. Its all vegetarian Steamed pumpkin, carrots, broccoli, cheeses and a bit of mayo (Just a bit), I also made home made juice. I know that it might seam strange to some of you that I always talk about food and cleaning my apartment but this is a huge thing for me because as my mom can contest I have never really had to cook and clean a house by myself. So I am proud of myself that I have grown to that part of adulthood. I think tonights going to be a quiet night going to bed early and resting :) Maybe some washing of cloths and such. Love you all
talk to you tomorrow.
