I am really looking forward to being in a Kindergarten class again this semester! Summerville Elementary seems like a great school and I look forward to meeting the students and teachers on Thursday. Being in a field placement is such a rewarding experience and I am so grateful for this upcoming opportunity. I hope to learn more classroom and behavior management skills in particular. Because I have never officially taught, the hours in the classroom are so beneficial to me. There is a lot to learn outside of lesson planning! I am also really looking forward to being in the school during the second half of the day. Last semester I was there for calender time every day and the beginning of center time. I think that being there after lunch will give us great insight. I must admit that I am a little hesitant on the upcoming family visits. I am hoping to be proven wrong, but I cannot help but feel intimidated. I am interested in hearing if you all have had any positive or negative experiences in the past with this. I am sure there are a lot of great things that come from them so I would love to hear. I am looking forward to sharing our ideas this semester through the blog! Happy Blogging :)
