Student Teaching

Student teaching has taken over my life ... and that's a good thing... sometimes!! Here are some pictures of what I have been up to! Enjoy!


Field Day






Read Alouds (We are completing a unit on Tall Tales!!)











Playing Boggle (game day activity)

LiFe

I know it has been FOREVER since I have blogged! I have been very VERY busy and our computer has been VERY S...L...O...W! Roger, Terri, Morgan, and Landon came down this past weekend and I took a few pictures! You all had a great time...wait...no we didn't! j/k :) We laughed, went shopping, ate some food and laughed some more!!

A pictures worth a thousand words, so I will let the pictures do the talking!!

Bethany Elphaba Dibble

Let's just say I had a fun time defying gravity!

Guess who has a BLOG!

Hoops and Yoyo have a blog! Check it out! They're hilarious!

WiCkEd

I think this picture captures Elphaba's beauty! (A young and hopeful Elphaba (Eden Espinosa) arrives at Shiz University)



This is the day I have been waiting for over a year! I have listened to the CD countless times!! I was so excited the whole time I was at ASU’s Gammage Auditorium and even the whole day, even when I got drenched by the rain on my way to class. It was raining sideways!! Whitney captures my excitement wonderfully on her blog. I also got an awesome shirt that says Defy Gravity. It was such an amazing performance!! I don’t think I can even begin to describe how I felt. When Elphaba walked on stage everyone clapped, including me, (yes I was the first one to start clapping!!). I don't think I realized I was actually there until Elphaba sang, "The Wizard and I". That was fantastic! That song was awesome!! All of the songs were perfect!! Before the show got started I went to get a closer look at the stage and while I was admiring the set up an usher told me, “You know who the real fans are because they are wearing green!” I just grinned and nodded!! The performers all did an amazing job! Here are their bios. Here are some pictures of the people who sat between me! They were great company!

These next two pictures are of the people who actually performed!

Defying Gravity was AMAZING!!!!!!

I felt like this the whole night!!

Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes: and leap! It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity And you can't pull me down!

Utah Trip

My parents and I went to Utah Aug. 11 to Aug. 18. Grandpa Gregory passed away on Aug. 9 so we also had a funeral to attend 8-13-06 Mon.














Grandpa Gregory will be missed! I will miss hearing his voice every night and scratching his back when I see him even if I do get paid in dimes! I will also miss eating a double dipped blueberry dounut from Tasties! I know who I am!


















Had breakfast with Dana and Doug at The Oaks.
The hot chocolate was SO GOOOD! It had cinnamon sprinkled on the top.

Basses Duet Better Concert

My Dad and I got to go to hear Nick Villalobos play in a concert at ASU. The concert was also with a guy who sang bass.

It was awesome to hear Nick play!

Way to go Nick!

Samurai Jack

Last night I watched Samurai Jack with Ray, George, Anabelle, and Adam. Adam rented the pilot episodes of the cartoon. It was really cool! There wasn't that much talking but the sound effects and the actions scenes were really awesome! The guy who designed the cartoons of Samurai Jack is the same guy who did the Star Wars cartoons (between episodes 2 and 3). I can't wait to watch more Samurai Jack!
