excitement for the spring
Today was a day in which I started to get ahead of myself, but at the same time I'm finding it more difficult to do so...
In the spring, for those unaware, I'm going to be living in South Carolina with my older sister. That, in itself, makes me extremely happy... the more that things get planned and things are working out and getting closer to finishing the semester- and being certified- I get even more excited for that time!!! Now although a lot of it will be spending time with my sister I'm also going to substitute teach which I think is a good career move since I will be certified K-12 and this will be good K-12 experience in different class settings and will get paid for an experience and knowledge to be gained... without having to write the lesson plans :-o!
I had the opportunity to take over a 6th grade class & basically substitute and found that I had so much fun doing that and I would have gladly done it without the chocolate compensation that the teacher decided to provide- although turning away chocolate should never be done! Then again I got to watch Stomp in the class and made the review a game for the kids so they were happy that I made their material a bit more interesting. *only thing was a student was observing that day and decided to observe me teaching that class... although I discovered I'm a lot more confident than when I began in the fall and that there weren't any hiccups that I could see in the way I presented the material
That's all I'm writing at this point since I'm pooped out without really understanding why- so I'll go to bed early and I can also sleep in! :-o
