Fall 08...

Well, this past week was the start of the new school year and with it I started student teaching. I am in a second grade classroom, with 19 students. My cooperating teacher is a fantastic mentor and teacher. I hope to someday achieve what she has. I go through so many emotions in one school day, happy, excited, anxious, nervous, sad, frustrated, overwhelmed, eager, etc...Its hard keeping them all contained within me at the appropriate times...Its a very challenging job, but I just keep telling myself what a great learning experience this is to be with a verteran teacher for 8 weeks...I'm keeping my head up for a vibrant and successful week ahead. week 2.
