Spring 2000

Its hard to believe I've made it this far. I am in my last semester of classes. My student teaching application is filed, I've taken the Praxis exams required by Louisiana, and I terrified!!! I'm excited, yes, but I scared. There is no other words to describe what I'm feeling right now. I've been reading more, and talking to teachers and my peers more, and I realize I'm not ready. What about management? Discipline? Can I REALLY teach reading, math, science, social studies, etc? Can I handle my students, parents, administrators, and fellow teachers?

I've really enjoyed my classes. My professors have been wonderful. I feel I've learned a lot. But will it be enough? If you look at my grades, you might think I'll be ready. My GPA at last check was about 3.5 out of 4.0. But what are grades when it comes right down to it? Teachers have that special something. I think I have it, my DH thinks I have it, my peers think I have it, and even my professors think I have it. But do I really? I guess I'll have to wait and see. I'll know soon enough!
