We've only just begun

Well we've done it. We have officially survived the first week of the new semester, so let's take a breath of relief. This is the first education class dealing with reading and writing in content area that I have ever taken, and I have to say that Dr. Clark teaching our class, even though I still have plenty to learn both in this class and befor I graduate, I feel like I can be successful and come out as more prepared when it's all said and done. I feel like we did a very good job when it came to setting up an environment where we can all rely on each other and be successful.

I also particularly like the fact that this class is so engaging with both technology that we are already familiar with, as well as teaching us about new technologies that we can add to our teaching arsenal. I also find it to be very helpful that we have such quick access to the standards that we will need to be familiar with as well, as well as our course calendar and syllabus.I know that for me, this takes a big weight off of my shoulders and will help me breathe a little bit easier throughout the semester. I know that for me personally, I have never blogged before, so bear with me as this is just slightly intimidating. Hopefully, I will be far more confident in my blogging skills as well by the time the end of this semester rolls around. I look forward to getting to know you all better, especially with the possibility of running into each other as co-workers in the future. Take it easy and I'll see you guys in class tomorrow!
