My placement!!!!!!! aaah scary

I'm on placement at the moment! What's that? some of you may ask. It's when training teachers go into a classroom in a school. The first placement is mainly for observation but they may do a little bit of teaching.
It's weird, I'm back at my old school! It's fun though, and I know the teachers and I know my way around too, which always helps.
I'm with a yr 5/6 class, so they are too old to be cute, but they are nice and the class is pretty well behaved and respectful.
Yesterday I swapped with one of the other Trainee's and spent the afternoon in the yr1 class - Oh my gosh! They are so adorable - I just want one to take home with me! And i got to teach them a song:

The Lord loves me
And all the wonders I see
A rainbow shines through my window
The Lord loves me

And the sang and did the actions looking all angelic and cherub-like! It was so cute.
I think this kind of age (yr 1 and 2) is what I'd like to teach - but I haven't hardly had experience teaching that age yet, so don't really know! I know i'd definitely need to develop some more patience before teaching this level - although i think i am more patient with children than I am with adults - because they aren't supposed to know the stuff - that's why we are teaching them!

Anyways, thanks for hanging around to hear me out!

See you,
