Last Week Yay!

I can not believe that we are done with class for the semester. It went by so fast. For class this week we had a guest speaker and she was very fun to listen to. She was very peppy and talked to us about being great teachers, ones that will get hired. She kind of scared me when she said that when she used to interview candidates for the job she would have them give a 5 minute mini lesson in front of the board. Right then I thought about changing my major. I have since thought about the reality of it not being so bad. It would be something that I have to do, so I might as well make the most of it.
I am relieved that we do not have any serious big finals, that takes a lot of weight off my shoulders. I have learned a lot this semester and feel like I have made an impact on the kind of teacher I will be some day.

Learning Journal

This weeks discussion to be honest kind of annoyed me. I felt like the questions presented about having a small class size were very repetitive. Over and over we talked about the same things. My conclusion on having a small class size is, I don't have control over it so I will work with what I have. If I am ever asked to give my opinion I think that smaller classes are a good thing, however lets be realistic in the funding. With the rest of the week I felt like it went by like a blur. So much for us to be doing, and so I know at least I am antsy sitting in class thinking about all I need to get done. One week left and then finals! YAY!
