Life...or lack there of
HELLO!
Did you just hear that?! That was the sound of any social life I had exploding!
Student teaching responsibilities are starting to feel like a heavy load, and I'm only in the second week. I have taken over a few things in the classroom. There is little planning involved in what I am doing so far, but I am trying to get ahead on other assignments that will be coming up quickly. Student teaching is going to be a great experience, but it will be a busy one.
The semester breaks down to look like this:
Multiple Portfolios (developing, showcase, and digital......then somewhere I'm supposed to make a professional one)
A gigantic unit plan (the title unit plan for this project does not do justice to the work that will be put into this)that is confusing, full of detail, and will in the end be a very impressive document to show future employers.
and finally......LESSON PLANNING! I am most excited about this one because this is really where I'll get to have some fun. Don't get me wrong because I know the unit will be fun. The planning and other paper work that has to go into that particular project will probably take most of the fun out of it. The lessons and working with the kids everyday is going to be the highlight of the semester.
Can you tell I'm stressed?! Least we forget....I'm planning a wedding for June!
Keep checking back to see if I can keep my head above water this semester!
Until then how about some pictures of the new students and new classroom?!
