Well last week our learning centers were due. I know I have irresponsibly been A.W.O.L. in blogtown, but this crazy learning center took over my life for a while. However, I am so pleased with the outcome. I'm not bragging, just stating that I am 100% satisfied with the work I produced.
I won't deny the fact that this was a lot of work, but I was surprised at how much I thoroughly I enjoyed doing it. It was homework, stressful, and time consuming in an already busy time, but I found myself getting more and more excited about it the more time I spent on it. I even had to cut myself off because there just wasn't enough room or time to complete all the ideas I had! This is particularly good news because it means (hopefully) that when I actually finally get to be a real teacher, I am going to be happy doing it and excited to go to work everyday, except for maybe the getting up at 6 am everyday. That part is not so enthralling.
Regardless, the point is that as time goes on I am feeling more and more comfortable with the things I do and I am finally starting to be a little bit confident in it. I am so glad we did learning centers because it really was the final push to give me this. I even felt so good about it, I sent friends here and at home the assignments I had created and the photos from when it was all complete. I got so many compliments on it, from the "cleverness" of the title to being able to make writing enticing. So really, if you haven't already picked it up yet, I couldn't be happier with the outcome!

These are little drawings that go with one of my assignments. You have to draw your face while looking in the mirror without looking at your paper! It's quite difficult. Mine is the top left, though I'd like to think my face isn't as chubby in real life.
Here is a photo of my help center, supplies, and student folders.
Finished backboard!
Complete project! :D
