We are almost there!

We are almost there! Although it is extreamly exciting to only have six days left of school, it is also very scary considering the amount of work that we still have left to do! It seems that we have months of school work left but the due dates are fast approaching. But once all the assignments are said and done and handed in, I will have six months of from classes, something I have never had before! I realize that I will be student teaching for two out of these six months but student teaching is so enjoyable and seems to go by so fast. Student teaching, although a very important part of the education program, does not feel like school at all. It feels like work! I am excitied to get back into the classroom and resume doing what I love doing so much, teaching. I am excited to meet a new group of students and staff and hopefully I will make some good connections along the way. Who knows, I might even continue blogging! We will see!

Half way through!

We are officially half way through our second term in our first year of ed! The work and stress levels are both rising and my fellow peers and I are trudging through slowly but surely! My computer literacy class has proved to be far less daunting then expected but with the due date for the e-portfolio approaching quickly I am beginning to once again doubt my capabilites in this course! I need to remind myself though that in this short amount of time I have learned more about computers and how to integrate them into a classroom than ever before! The sample e-portfolios that i have seen look beautiful and so professional. I love the idea of having one but I am not exactly sure how I am going to get to that point! It seems so difficult. Hopefully in my next blog I will be bragging about my e-portfolio and how easy it was to make! Time will tell..
