“..but how?”
I didn’t feel as if this week was particularly difficult, but I sure was exhausted at the end of every day! By 9:00pm I was aching to crawl into bed (a phenomenon I had rarely experienced before this week). I’m happy the long weekend has arrived because I needed some time to organize my life. Now that I have been able to get to know our students a little bit I can begin to plan some larger units that I will soon be teaching. I was doing some soul searching and I found it was helpful to break up my internship into smaller parts. I asked myself:
“What do I have to teach?” – The short answer is EVERYTHING and the long answer is that I need to look to the curriculum guide..
“What do I want to accomplish?” - I want to engage the students. It’s as simple as that. Now, the difficult part is finding out how to do that…
Attempting to answer the “how” question I’ve been mulling over, I came across this video on TeacherTube. It gives teaches a great deal to think about..
