I really wish I could've put the peace finger emoji in my title because that's how I feel right now. Also, serious question here: do contractions apply when we're using the past tense of is (as in, has)? Cause that's exactly how I just used it in my title and I'm not quite sure if it's correct. Ah well.
Today we did that whole categorizing thing and that was a nice catch because it would definitely be helpful to know when to use each specific strategy. Dr. Clark demonstrated NCTCS 5c: teachers function effectively in a complex, dynamic environment. Sometimes, actually, not even, most times, college classes are hectic. They tend to get off schedule a lot and this is especially true during spring semester with all of the snow days and fun trips. Some teachers wouldn't modify their set class schedule to accommodate these changes, and I'm just grateful that Dr. C does, instead of moving on into new topics and subjects. It's the actions of a person that teaches you, just as much as the knowledge that a person gives you. With that being said, thanks Dr. Clark!
I have enjoyed every minute of you guyses during this class! Ya'll are the absolute best! Now we just have to get through this week and finals and I have total and complete faith in all of you that we're going to pass and have an amazing summer.
IT'S BEEN REAL 316!!! *insert party favor emoji's*

Shaquavia,
ReplyDeleteI am also really glad for the kind of environment Dr. Clark provided for us in this class. She really pushed our learning yet also gave us confidence and helped us feel comfortable with one another. It was awesome being in your BPH group and getting to know you. I wish you the best as you continue your studies. I'm sure you will be a fabulous ESL teacher.

ReplyDeleteWow, this is sad, but i'm so glad I met you this semester! You've helped me through this class, and spoke so much encouragement to me, thank you! I agree, I'm so glad Dr. Clark was so understanding and realized that we didn't understand one part of the whole teaching thing and instead of moving on, she went back and taught it to us so we would get a better understanding! I'm gonna miss everyone next semester, but will see everyone around I'm sure :)
PEACE!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I'm so glad that you are just as relieved as us all that this semester is wrapping up. I am so glad that we got to know one another and I hope that we end up in the same school one day (haha!). You are going to be a wonderful ESL teacher!
