My Teaching Experiences

I'm a graduate student at Boise State University just starting to work with the school districts.

This no-frills blog is my account of my experiences in the school setting.

This week I discovered that I had grown closer to my ninth graders than I had thought. When they see me in the halls, they shout out a hello and a few have stopped by the new classroom to say hi. One stopped me in the halls specifically to chat and tell me she wishes I was still in her class. It didn't occur to me that I would miss them after only nine weeks.

I'm starting to learn more about the eighth graders, though. Their names are coming to me and I'm starting to get a feel for their personalities. T---- thinks I'm going to have a super difficult time adjusting, but I'm not. I'm just adjusting is all. I'm making my way through the weeks, knowing that the end is near. Right now, I'm actually more worried about all the end-of-semester wrap-up for my 102 class and applying for teaching jobs.
