University

I attend Griffith University, studying for a Bachelor of Education (Special Education). When I graduate, the degree means that I will be a teacher to children with special needs. I recently decided on my speciality: Intellectual Impairment.

I really can't believe how quickly the course has gone. Three years down, 12 months to go! This semester, my subjects are:

  • Pre-verbal Communication
  • Curriculum Development and Evaluation in Special Education 1
  • Augmentative and Alternative Communication
  • PPSE2 (Prac)

I am doing my prac at Logan City Special School and so far I have enjoyed myself.

In art class in 2001

Sometimes, working with kids is not all its cracked up to be...beware of catching lice as well!

My subjects for last year were:

I big thank-you to Mrs Rasmussen, Mrs Potter and 6/7D for having me at their class at Bundamba Primary School. It was great! See some of my lessons.

My subjects for semester 2 2001 were: Arts 2 (Visual); Learning in Studies of Society and the Enironment; Health and Physical Education and Teaching to Difference. It will seem like a challenge because I am returning to a full workload.

Thanks to Mrs Visini and Ms Galakas for having me as their prac student this semester, at Riverveiw State School again. I had a blast and I really learnt a lot.

My subjects semester 1 2001 included: Arts (Music); Primary Science Education 1; and English Education 2.

May 28: I recently had 9 days of practicum, wich I thought was simply awesome. There was a LOT of work to cover, but I did survive....and I loved it. Thanks to Mr Curness, his class 4C and Riverview State School for having me.

Griffith University has quite a few campuses around Brisbane and Logan. There's Nathan, Mt Gravett, Logan, Morningside (Art) and the Conservatorium at Southbank. I am at Mt Gravett, which used to be a teacher's collage. Although there are a few things that I would like to change, my uni is pretty good.
