Climbing the Hill

I have climbed out of the ditch! I am successfully climbing the hill of student teaching! I am so happy that I am a little more comfortable in my clothes, in my shoes, in the front of the class, giving assessments, etc. I am so happy that I am on the upside trying to absorb the student teaching experience for what it can and should be. I am excited to learn more about my teaching style, my discipline style, my relaxation style.

Just a few short weeks and I am going to be jumping into applications, interviews, resumes, etc.

Prayer request:
  • God would open my eyes to help me see how He's working in this student teaching experience
  • for me to give my all
  • to provide students the best teaching they deserve
  • for me to love the students the way that God would
  • for me to see the differences and find ways to meet needs
  • for me to get homework done
  • time and strength and focus to study for the state assessments

First Day of Student Teaching

Today was awesome. I really enjoyed how things worked out and I felt relaxed and confident. I love each and everyone of those students and see so much potential in them. I am excited to invest and give of what God has given to me to make a difference in the lives of the children.
