My student teaching experience was wonderful. My fabulous second graders taught me so much in a short time. I was blessed to be placed with an amazing cooperating teacher. It amazed me how they placed the each student teacher with their cooperating teacher. The majority of my UAB peers were placed with teacher who were just like them. This was the case for me as well. Mrs. G and I were too much alike in many aspects, we looked similar to each other, we acted like each other, and some of our teaching methods were the same. The time flew by while I was in second grade and the next thing that I knew I was graduating. There is a word that I thought I WOULD NEVER SAY: GRADUATION!!!! The day was spent surrounded by those who helped make the LONG journey possible. Karl and I went to brunch before commencement and afterwards, the family met for dinner at a local restaurant. After dinner, Karl and I welcomed close friends over for a holiday party. So what's the next step?? Good question.....
I have been subbing at several local schools, and have interviewed with a principal about a part time job tutoring struggling math and reading students during the school-day. This would be a three-day-a-week job. After a couple of weeks since the interview with the principal, I found out that the tutoring program was approved for funding. The next step is to discuss with the teachers about what students need the extra help. Hopefully this adventure will start at the first of February.
I'm hanging on to see what happens next.... hang in there with me!
