Dear College Interns Finishing Your Junior Year,
Yay! Congrats, we did it! We finally made it to the last year of our college career. Scary. This past year has been challenging but also very rewarding. I started my junior off by starting all of my elementary education classes and I was placed in a second grade classroom in a Title 1 school. I was very fortunate to have an amazing collaborating teacher who has taught me classroom management, guided reading, professionalism, and many other countless things that made me the level III intern I am today. My classes have taught me how to differentiate instruction, teach intermediate literacy, K-6 math, K-6 social studies, and teaching exceptional students. I am thankful my professors have all been elementary teachers in the school district where my internship is. This year I have learned how to reflect on my teachings, so I know my strengths and weaknesses.
To start off my senior year, I will be taking four summer classes and continue to stay with my second grade class until their last day off school. My summer schedule includes, Teaching Elementary Writing, ESOL 2, seminar, and Measurement for Teachers. Then August 14 I start pre-planning with my 5th grade collaborating teacher for the 2014-2015 school year!
I will keep on blogging all summer long. Hope you are looking to my senior year just as much as I am!
Happy summer,
Miss Hester
