Long, long road

Hey there folks,

Sorry I have not written anything in such a long time. But I’ll catch us up.
Firstly, I had a great time with the grade 1 students. They take quite a bit of work with respect to classroom management and attention spans but they are so much fun. I would not have considered teaching the beginner grades a few years ago, but I would not turn down a chance at working with them in the future. As many of you with FB can see my profile picture has changed to a picture that was drawn by one of my students. It show me with my ‘science coat’ and ‘potions’… love it. I also got a set of letters from the class as a farewell present. Those kids are so awesome. I really enjoyed working with my TA and I really learned quite a bit from her.
Secondly, I had a pretty good Christmas and New Year’s break. I was house/pet sitting over the holidays and got distracted by the wide assortment of entertainment at the other house and as such did not do nearly as much as I hoped. But I got one commissioned project finished. I will try and remember to post the finished images online when I get access to a digital camera. New Year’s was a blast… Guitar Hero eat your heart out, Rock Band is the name of the game!
Lastly, I’ve dove right into PSII this semester. I only have 4 classes + practicum, but each of the classes are 6 hours/week. I know that this semester like the last I’m going to have to hit the ground running. Work hard, do good work, co-operate, and then hope for the best. I’ll try and keep this blog thing going as much as I can. I feel out of the habit during my last practicum because the school’s server denies access to Blogger… I’ll try and keep this up though,

So see you all soon,

Q
