The End

Well, here it is.

As it turns out, I was horrible at updating this blog. I suppose I can give you an overview of the end of my semester student teaching, but overall it was good. My unit went well; the majority of students wrote very good memoirs, though there were a few that had trouble. Those students were not a surprise, and hopefully they continue to improve. My CT had each class sign goodbye cards for me and they were wonderful and so heartwarming. The end was very bittersweet and I can't wait to become certified to substitute (I could have a semester ago, but I wanted to focus on student teaching- I will be allowed to substitute in February, though I can legally teach now). I definitely plan on subbing for my CT. In fact, someone I know is being her student teacher next semester so that will be pretty awesome! He's going to do great and the kids will love him.

I graduated Sunday. I got to sit with three of my friends from previous semesters. It was sort of boring, but really nice and we all got to be together. I graduated with honors and have since been sitting around, looking for jobs nearby (I am in a lease until September and don't plan on moving until then). I'm relaxing, Christmas shopping, and watching Freaks and Geeks.

Overall it was a fabulous experience and I can't wait to start real life.
