1. Where are you doing your mentorship?
I am doing my mentorship at Montessori Academy and Day Care of West Covina.
2. Who is your contact? What makes this person an expert?
My mentor is Mrs. Martha. She is an expert because she has been teaching there for a few years now and has the experience of a mother and working with kids. She has taken the required courses and classes on Child Development to prepare her for what she is doing now.
3. How many hours have you done during the school year? (Summer Mentorship Hours and Mentorship Hours should be reflected separately in your Senior Project Hours log located on the right hand side of your blog).
Including my summer mentorship hours with the hours I have done throughout the school year I now have a total of 32 hours done.
4. Succinctly summarize what you did, how well you and your mentor worked together, and how you plan to complete the remaining hours.
I have been going to the Montessori Academy and Day Care since the middle of my junior year. I've known my mentor for a little over a year now just by doing my hours there. I do a routine of what other teachers would do there, but not changing diapers. Going there has taught me a lot of things, especially patience. We deal with a lot of different kids and personalities, and as a teacher(or student as I am one) we learn how to adapt to their needs while being able to educate them and use the proper forms of discipline and structure. My mentor and I work really well together, and I work well with the other teachers too. We coordinate what to do and who does what while following the routine the kids have. I plan on completing the remaining hours by continuing my mentorship and possibly exploring other classrooms of older age groups.
