As this year comes to an end, I realize many things about teaching...Not everything they teach you in college is relevant to the "real" teaching world. Somethings you just have to "wing it".
Each week I reflect about my lesson plans and think how to best educate my students. I've learned that the provided pacing guides don't always go with how well my students are able to grasp a certain theme. Teaching is all about learning yourself...Learning what your students respond to...Learning how to inspire your students...Learning that it's okay if things don't go as you planned.
I welcome 2008! This begins the second half of this school year! Here's to teaching, but most of all to learning for ALL!
