School

Soon, oh so soon

December 6, 2006

I think I might actually be coming down with my first official sickness of the season. I can feel my head getting heavier, and I’m pretty tired lately. Of course it all might just be due to the fact that I’ve had limited sleep lately! Last night, I missed out on at least three hours [...]

I can taste it now

December 5, 2006

I had my final review today, and my meeting went really well. It was quick and successful and there were no big surprises. My mentor teachers were really kind to me, and said very nice things. I can’t wait to read my final report next week! Now all I have is my exit interview, which [...]

Wow it’s Decemeber already

December 1, 2006

Only three more weeks until I’m finished! I’ve started the countdown, maybe I should buy an advent calendar to celebrate. I have just finished my final requirement for the programme; an electronic portfolio. It’s suppose to illustrate that I’ve met the BC college of teachers requirements to become a certifiable teacher. To say the very [...]

Wednesday, shmensday.

November 29, 2006

I actually made it in to school today. I was totally nervous the entire drive, thinking that at any moment I was going to go sliding into oncoming traffic, or that some jerk was going to slam into me from the side! AHH, all from the irrational mind of me. I’m blaming the pregnancy! My [...]

My last observation

November 22, 2006

It’s finally over. This afternoon I had my final official observation from my Uvic Supervisor. I can’t believe that I’ve finished this part already. I now need to wait about a week and a half until my final summary, where my mentors, supervisor and I will meet to write up my final review. Once this [...]

Yahoo!

November 21, 2006

Well, tonight my mentor teachers and I finished the last of our draft report cards. I’m hoping that the majority of our work it done, possibly just a little editing if necessary. I also have my final observation tomorrow afternoon, and then I’ll just have my final report meeting to decide if I’ve been successful [...]

Wow, report cards suck.

November 15, 2006

Sigh…well, last night I spent hours working on a portion of the report cards for my students. Talk about much harder than it appears. Diplomacy is central, especially when you are writing something that may be interpreted as negative. I was finally able to get to bed, after working from 8:20am onwards, at 11:30pm. I [...]

I just feel like blogging

November 7, 2006

There hasn’t been too much to report lately. I have started my 100% teaching load this week, and I’m loving it. It is so much easier to do 100% than a smaller percentage. This is possibly because I get to do things whenever I need to, it is also early dismissal week for parent teacher [...]
