Fall 2007, day 2
I've been student teaching for 3 weeks now (though the first 2 weeks were 3 school days long) and I am having a fun time. The instructors of the Master's program at Stony Brook asked that we spend the 1st week observing our cooperating teachers before we begin teaching ourselves. Things didn't quite work out his way. I was in front of the class on day 3. And if you consider that day 1 was spent observing my cooperating teacher go over the course outline with the students, I actually only observed her teaching for 1 day. Things have gone surprisingly well though. The kids in my classes are great, as are the teachers I have met along the way. They are all extremely helpful, which has made my student teaching experience fantastic thus far. I'm extremely fortunate to be working and learning from so many extremely helpful and considerate educators.
Monday starts my first week of my three week unit plan on Julius Caesar. Am I nervous? Well, that's an understatement. With any luck, I'll do ok. I really like the students in my classes. They have a lot of personality and they make my mornings a lot of fun.
What else?
Well, Magdalene and I have tickets to a handful of shows over the next few months.

With any luck, I'll be able to get Van Halen tickets for November as well. That would be amazing. DLR. That's what it's all about!
I missed John's B-Day celebration on Friday night. That sucks. I started feeling sick on Thursday night. My left sinus passage began burning and I started feeling body aches. Friday wasn't much better. I was feeling the illness in me through most of the day. After teaching, I went home where I lay in bed for 20 minutes before going to work at Journeys until 10pm. Realizing I would never survive the drive to Howard Beach, much less the drive home, I opted to go home and sleep. I fell asleep just before 12am and woke up at 10:30am the next morning. I still feel a bit sick, but the aches have left. Perhaps the faucet that is my nose will be turned off by tomorrow.
Ok, I have some work to do and sleep to attempt, so this blog is over.
Later on.
