My Scuba Divers!!!

"When I approach a child he inspires in me two sentiments: tenderness for what he is and respect for what he may become" Louis Pasteur.

Well, how to start? My degree is in business and even though I loved it, and numbers are always around me ; I've found myself working for the past seven years as a teacher in an American school. The whys??? Easy :children. I've fallen in love with children .I love teaching them and I love to be Miss Adriana- a special part of their lives.This year I teach with another teacher (Alexis ) first grade. Our class name is The Scuba Divers, name that I like a lot considering that I dive and my friends sometimes call me Dory ( Finding Nemo).We just started classes and I 'm having a blast already. They have such defined personalities, and they are so unique and funny....Examples I have a child who only eats yellow or white food and is always measuring and calculating everything and another that has already traveled almost around all the world and can recall all the places where he has been!!!They amuse my day so I always try to make myself better just for them. Yesterday I have my diving teacher come to my class to show them what a scuba diver looks like. They just loved it and they got to breath air from the tank with their mask and equipment on. They had such a great time and I know they won't forget it because they made a lot of questions and the first thing they did once they were picked up was to tell their parents their amazing experience. So like master card........ it is priceless!!
Teaching is a big big responsability but it is also one of the most rewarding things ... I feel graceful to be able to show them what the world looks like, and the different ways they can look at it , but it's up to them at the end because we are just guidance in their unwritten lives.
