What:
Starting as a full-time student this semester in the Elementary Education Cohort has been an eye opener for me. I have always felt VERY ready to step in and have my own class to teach, but I now realize the old adage is true: The more you know, the more you realize there is so much more to learn!!!!
So What:
I am already loving taking all 7 prescheduled classes for this semester. There is so much information to learn and as I learn I am increasing the prospect that I will become an even more phenomenal teacher. One very valid fear of mine is that I will never be able to remember and apply everything that I come in contact with during my schooling at UVU. It is not possible, is it? What if, after a few years of teaching, I get in a "rut" and don't utilize this gold mine of knowledge?
Now What:
My focus in facing my fear (alliteration --I love it) will be to take in as much as possible while I am here at school. After schooling, I plan to research whenever needed to relearn or learn new strategies especially in the technology side of teaching. After my own experience, technology will be my greatest asset when I offer only the best to my students. Then I really won't need to fear the future after all.
This blog posting was a little light. Please make sure that you spend a bit more time sharing more of yourself and your passion.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to send you into the field of teaching. You seem to be excited and have lots of new and fresh ideas to include in your classroom. This assignment seems to have been a fun exercise for you and I hope that your dreams become a reality for both your students and yourself.
