The teacher flip reminded me of the time I spent as a substitute teacher. I'm glad I have my own class with small numbers. One the other hand, I was reminded of tools such as Notebook and science experiments I can be incorporating into my room.

It was fun. A great way to build empathy, unity. Nice to walk a mile in someone else's moccasins.

I expected to have more hiccups flipping classrooms but the students knew their job well and were able to help me. I enjoyed working with the small groups of them and seeing their capabilities outside of art!

I liked getting to see my old friends, but I missed the atmosphere of little ones.

*  It was FUN to see my "old kids!"
*  Second graders are soooo smart!
*  Second graders can tell time (so they kept me updated constantly about what we should be doing at the correct time.)
I misssssed MY class!

It was really fun getting to work the "littles" again!  I almost forgot how eager they are to please their teacher at that age!  I sure did miss my kiddos and worried about them all day!

Kindergarten was great and so much fun. They are a great group of kids that show so much love and caring for one another. "Let me help you, teacher!"

I loved my third grade experience but I missed being needed.  I missed tying shoes and wiping noses.  I missed dancing with my Kinder buddies.
It was fun to see the independence in 3rd grade. They were able to do their work without 3000 questions. WOW.

I loved spending the day with some of our second graders; I feel like I have made some new forever friends.

I truly enjoyed my day!!! I can't wait to have another flip day.

I enjoyed my day in first grade. I really enjoyed getting back with my kids in the 3rd grade. No, I do not want to change grade levels.

I was nervous about going to 4th grade. They are so different than 1st graders! 4th grade math was particularly making me nervous. It really wasn't bad---different---but I missed my firsties! I won't be putting in a transfer.

It was fun, but I was ready to get back to my kids.

After school yesterday one of my (honest!!) thoughts was, "If I was Mrs. Boyd, I would be using all of my personal and sick days (and mental health days if they existed :)"
A student said to me, "at first I was nervous about flip day but then I found out we were getting a great teacher like you so then I wasn't nervous anymore."
My student teacher said she felt like she passed a test when a (not so easy) student said to her as we were walking to the gym at the end of the day, "You did a good job."

I enjoyed spending the day with some of the new students of Horace Mann along with our students from last year.

It is good to see where students come from and where the students begin in their learning process. It really is amazing how much their brains soak in over a 3 year period.

This was an invaluable experience, and a great chance to walk in one another's shoes for a day. You can listen to your fellow teachers talk about their days and be sympathetic or rejoice with them without really "getting" what it is to be them. I definitely would advocate doing this again.

I have always had the utmost respect and admiration for the work that Mrs. Morton and Mrs. Laura do because their kids always make great gains.  After working there one day, I can see why!  They are sincerely dedicated to the success of their students.  Thank you for the experience, but I'm glad to be back in my comfort zone.

I loved Kindergarten. There was always a shoe to tie and a hug to give.

Being Coach Clark for a day was really fun.  However, I did miss my own kiddos...
My favorite quote of the day came from a Kindergarten student who randomly yelled to me "Hey Teacher! One time I laughed so hard I pooped my pants!" #redifinehappiness

Second grade is a grade level I have no prior experience in. It was fun to see the students working at this level. However, they were so independent, I didn't feel like they needed my help. And as someone who works in Kindergarten, I am used to being needed!

I really enjoyed my day.  I didn't die doing lunch duty so that was a plus.  I do want to clean Jordan's room-but that is just me.  She had fun things planned for the kids and I know they enjoy her.
