Work Experience: Day 4 and 5
So Day 4 and 5 are literally the last two days of Work Experience, so therefore I think I shall go more in depth about my last day, Day 5?
Day 4
We was rather early going to work, but we was still able to get stuff ready and help the teachers before the children started coming to school. We got paper ready for play dough disco and doing their train activity. We did the train activity first about YoYo's birthday present. Yes, the last blog I said was Holly? But the actual character is YoYo. YoYo's birthday. After we did the train activity it was time for play dough disco but instead of using play dough they used pipe cleaners because you know... Germs... So yes. All the pupils used pipe cleaners instead of play dough and listened to the bend and stretch song.
After these activities, it was time for break, so of course the children had their snack time which they had a biscuit and a bottle of milk each. Then after snack time it was time for the children to go out and play. I played with the little ones and we played 'Duck Duck Goose'.
Basically 'Duck Duck Goose' is a game. We all have to sit in a circle and one person has to be the goose and tap our heads going 'Duck' until they are ready to choose who they want to be the 'Goose' and the chosen goose has to run and try and catch the goose before the goose sits down and changes into a duck. If they miss the goose then the new chosen goose stays a goose and if the goose was caught then, obviously he's stay put. He/She is the goose. But we played a different version with the children because they all wanted to be gooses.
After break, it was lunch time. The children has lasagne for lunch, I remember because it was a struggle for me to cut the pasta sheet for the children. Once the children had finished their lunch. It was our lunch and of course like every lunch time, I would meet up with Eliza and do some shots for our blog.
But this lunch time was different. I filmed Eliza's Work Experience LookBook for her which, if you would like to see her LookBook I would link it right here. We also took some shots for each others blog too... I will also just do a fashion blog after this Work Experience blog, so keep appealed. I will keep you updated on Twitter when that blog post would be uploaded!
So, here is my Day 4 OOTD. Thanks to Eliza for taking these pictures.
- Dress from Topshop
- Shirt from Marks & Spencers
- Tights from Marsk & Spencers
- Shoes from Comme Des Garcons Japan
- Denim Shorts from Hollister
- Watch from Michael Korrs
So yes, that's basically my outfit of the day. I also wear a pair of shorts underneath my dress as it was pretty shorts on the not so bright side. But you couldn't really see them as my dress long enough but still a little bit to short.
Here is one of Eliza's shots. Taken by Me
Eliza wore up her hair, which was a messy bun.
After my lunch break, I went back to school and I had to call pupils over to come and stick some stripes on the tiger before it was afternoon break again. It was very messy indeed because there was lots of glue used as we were cutting and sticking.
Day 5
So, Day 5 was the last day of Work Experience for us and I would definitely miss it of course. It's been a lovely time working with the teachers and children. Yes, there were a lot of children and took me at least 3 days to learn all their names, but I actually really enjoy Work Experience.. I thought it would have been an disaster but obviously it was not! It was incredibly amazing and I absolutely loved it and I definitely recommend an placement in primary school if you are struggling to choose where you would like to go for Work Experience.
All the members of staff were friendly and politely and literally everybody was lovely!
When I arrived for Work Experience on the last day we did some drawing with the pupils as they were coming into school and I drew some flowers and the children drew me some cute little pictures (which can be seen on my Instagram). They were really cute drawings off the girls Romi, Ruby and Crystal. I felt so loved when I received them as I knew that I wasn't a proper teacher and would only be there for a week. But if I ever become a teacher which is Number 2 on my list I would definitely remember all the memories I had during my Work Experience placement and just by reading these blog posts I have post about Work Experience.
After I received drawings off the little ones, it was time to do the register and time for jungle story before the children go to play. While the children had a jungle story, Fer, Jasmine and I went outside to go and see the Eclipse. Mrs Waite the teacher nicely offered us to go outside to go and see the eclipse, as she heard us talk about it in class.
When we went to go and see the Eclipse there, were actually two infant classes outside, watching the eclipse too. As so as we went outside, we instantly felt the temperature drop and we also thought that the sky would go extremely dark like night time, but it did not.
Here is one of the methods we used to watch the Solar Eclipse, basically it is A3 paper that has been hole punched then another sheet of A3 paper laid flat on the floor and the holes would reflect to the paper so we would be able to see the Eclipse.
Fern and I continued with the Tiger and Leopard activity when we got back into the classroom. Which was to stick on stripes for the tiger and Fern had to stick on spots on the leopard. Before we knew it, it was snack time for the children and break time for us. I suppose it would have been our last ever break time and during our break we literally filled in our Work Experience diaries. After break, it was time to take the children out in the yard to play. Once again we played 'Duck, Duck, Goose' and I suppose that would be the last ever game we would play during Work Experience. So it was SUPER fun!
Once break finished, the children went back to the classroom and they had another story, before long it was lunch and the children had Bacon and Chips or Fish and Chips. Once the children had finished their food it was time for us to have our lunch and Victoria and I went to meet Eliza to do some more shots for our blogs. But Eliza was late from coming home from her placement so we didn't do any shots. By the time Eliza came back, it was too late as there was only 15 minutes left of our lunch and by the time we walked to our location and got ready that was 6 minutes gone. So we didn't take any photos or record anything. Victoria and I just went back to school.
After Lunch, the children had to answer their names for the register again and then go to assembly and when the children went to assembly, a teacher had a job for us which was to clean up the yard... SUPER DUPER FUN! -.- NOT. Apparently the school was going to receive a green flag so they had to clean up the yard. So, all us Work Experience girls that were down the infants had to clean up the yard... Very Fun. There weren't enough brushes so, some of us were just running around, standing, sliding down the slide and stuff. Just making the most of the last day. We was out the yard cleaning for possibly half an hour. After assembly had ended. The nursery children (which was my class) went on a bear hunt on the field near the school. And because Fern and I bought treats for the children as it was our last day we basically ate them up the field. It was a lovely day because, the sun was shining! The best last day ever!
Because I didn't have an OOTD shoot with Eliza in some random location, I went home and just randomly took a mirror selfie. Sorry Guys.
