End of Summer and my new journey

This summer did not end up being what I had planned. I ended up getting a factory job and working a ton!!! Therefore nothing too fun really occurred this summer, which was the reason for no posts. (Sorry!) However, as the summer now came to a close I am now one week into my new journey. I am officially a student teacher at Holmen Middle School! So far, it has been a blast! Although there will be a TON of work to do, I am so excited. Last week was the first week of school. We have a lot of great kids in our classes! I am really beginning to find out all of the work that goes on behind the scenes. If it is not meetings with the house, guidance, or curriculum teachers...it is doing something else for the classroom. I do enjoy it! The day fly's by.

I am having a little bit of difficulty adjusting all of the things in my schedule, like the additional 40 hours a week I am scheduled at my other job as well as cross country and trying to continue my training. It is rough! I get home and all I want to do is sleep!! December is NOT going to come fast enough! I am looking forward to all of the good times student teaching is going to bring as well as all of the opportunities that come along with it! I am so excited for the year, as well as graduation in December. I am finally beginning to see the light!
