| Journal Aug 26 -- So, I start student teaching Monday, and I am so excited!!!! I start in 3rd grade first, and then, 8 weeks after, I will go to Kindergarten. I am sooo excited. Aug 30 -- Today is my first day! I am not used to getting up this early… I love my sleep, but I still can’t wait! Sep 24 -- I have been swamped, as I am sure you understand. I don't have long, but just wanted to tell you how much I am enjoying this. It is so complicated, as I expected, but requires so much more energy and is more difficult than Iever imagined. But it is wonderful. I love it. |
