Unknown

I love organization, lists, and schedules. So being a new year and all it just seems logical that its time to come up with some new ones. Today was my trial run on my new Monday.
6am: Wake Up
7am : Leave for work
4pm: arrive home
5pm: Workout
6pm: Clean bedroom/living room
7pm: Dinner
8pm: Scrapbook
9pm: Bed and TV time
10pm: Goodnight phone call to Brandon and sleep

Today was my first day student teaching at Laker Elementary with my upper elementary special education students. It is a huge change from my last semester, but I think that I am going to fall into the routine. I actually find myself enjoying the loose structure and ability for students to make a lot of their own work choices. There are so many different work ethics and attentions spans with my students. I am also really liking the fact that there are only 13 students and I have a chance at times to have quality one-on-one time with students. Granted this was only day one, so there is the possibility for a change in my emotions but for now I am going to enjoy it for what it is. It is rather exciting to know that this is the last semester before I graduate. Only 12 weeks stand between me and the end of my undergraduate career. I probably should start work on my resume and all that fine print and red line crap.

The man who can make hard things easy is the educator
