Week 16
Words of wisdom, something I should be good at being a coach and an athlete. Work as hard as possible for the time you’re a student teacher. It's the first sixteen weeks of the rest of your life, you will be a teacher and this is just the beginning. Do not take all criticism personally; it's there to make you a better teacher not to put you down. Put in extra time and effort into everything you can possibly do, be the absolute best at your job. Take advantage of having other Business Education student teachers, they are going through exactly what you are so talk to them, collaborate with them, and take full advantage of everything and everyone around you. They are there to help you and guide you along the way. Most of all have as much fun as possible because your job should be fun.

I absolutely love this statement you made in your posting...."It's the first sixteen weeks of the rest of your life." I think this will be the slogan for my future Professional Semester classes! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAlso, thank you Rich for your growth this semester in Professional Semester. You were very lucky to be in a great high school with great cooperative teachers. This was a valuable placement for you. Take all that they have given you and remember it going into your teaching career. Some things "click" once we have our own classroom. I think every teacher can attest to that!
Good luck and best wishes.
