Teaching...

As many know I am going to school to be an Elementary Teacher.

My goal as a teacher is to help inspire, promote, and help students succeed throughout their school lives. I want my future students to know that learning can be hard but with right materials and the way you look at it will make your learning experience better and fun.

So recently I started my first educational class. I can say I like it tons but man the work for it is so hard. Miss Abagail does not like that I have to do work and she most of the time ends up crying while I am doing it. I have learned to tune her out in someways to be able to get things things I need done, done.

Anywho, I am nervous for Wednesday Feb. 6th as  I have to go obserb a teacher in a classroom. I decided to go to my old high schools preschool classes, as I know the teachers and area to help me be comfortable and less nervous, but funny thing is I'M STILL A NERVOUS WREAK. I have chewed my nails as far as I could, I'm getting really anxious, and I'm beginning to toss and turn all night long! What can I do??

I have a lot to do and I feel like my list is never ending. I have to study for the praxis, I have to pass the background stuff, I have to prepare all the things to get my student teaching approved. Its a joy thinking of all this and not knowing where to start to get it all straightened out. So far I just have to pay the money to get my background and clearance card done (next paycheck). And this month I am taking 1-2 hours a day to study for the praxis reading part to be able to take it in March. I have taken this test 2 times already and I missed the passing score by 5 pts. DANG... So this time I am going to study harder, and instead of taking a computer test. I am gonna switch it up and take a papered test as I feel like I am getting bored on a computer test because I sit on a computer every day...

What are some other good techniques out there that I could use to pass this test?

Wish me Luck on getting this long list completed!
