New Assignment

With the conclusion of last semester, it is time to get prepared for the upcoming assignment- fifth grade at a new school in Lakewood. There are so many exciting features of this new assignment- to begin with I got moved to a great school less than four miles from my house. With good news, there is always a bit of bad news or stress, and so although I am extremely excited to be at a new school with a new teacher and a great cohort- I am nervous about going into fifth grade. I have had some great experiences with children at this age, however, I would not say I have had enough experience with this age to be completely successful yet. I very excited for this challenge. With a new school is also a new partner, her name is Andrea and she seems very friendly and organized. Leaving my partner from last semester was hard, we had gone through so much together, but I think that having another opportunity to bond and learn from another student teacher is really beneficial to my education and success as a teacher. I hope that I always have the opportunity to learn from and support my peers. This adventure has taken an amazing turn and I can't wait to begin fifth grade (for the 2nd time) as a teacher!
