Well what do you know..I haven't been very good at keeping up with this blogging business. But I have been thinking about it more, I just have been busy (every teachers excuse) but haven't gotten around to it until now. Even now, I should be doing other things but I decided to take 15 minutes to give everyone a quick update.
Things in the classroom have been going great. My NEW reading groups/strategies have proven to be more effective and the kiddos are really starting to read. It is so neat to see them grow as readers and discover what they enjoy.
This week we will be hosting the Lena B. Tournament here in Chevak! We will only have 2 days of school with the rest of the week devoted to basketball. GO COMETS!!!
This past month has brought on some interesting things for me. For a while now, I known that I wanted to pursue a Master's degree in counseling. I may have jumped the gun a little bit, but I have my first class tomorrow night. I definitely nervous because I'm not really sure what to expect but I'm also excited that I'm finally going after my dream. I also wanted to do something with my current certification (k-12) and have decided that I will be taking the Language Arts praxis exam for high school. I haven't registered or decided when I want to take it yet (I've heard that it's extremely difficult) but I bought the study guide and practice test book, maybe when I get some free time (ha) I'll start studying for that!
