Personal Concerns and Next Steps

I really enjoy math but I am becoming really confused on how to teach it. I am placed in an eighth grade math class for internship, but it seems so different from what I am being taught. I read it on someone else’s blogspot, and I agree with there statement that I feel like I am learning math all over again and not how to teach it. Maybe I am not seeing the connection from what we are doing to how to teach math. How should I transfer this information to teaching math? I am kind of scared to teach math, but then I go to my internship and it gives me some confidence again.
I am kind of worried about my test. I think I well but on the other hand I am not so sure. I think I had most concepts down but then applying them to the test makes me wonder if I really understood them. I do appreciate the time that you gave for the test. I finished in class but with the thought of the extra time kind of gave me a little relief. There just to be so much information that I needed to know and understand for the test. I know I had notes but they were only there for a little help. I needed to understand the concepts of the notes, and to a point I did. I do appreciate the use of the notes because they did allow me to go back and re-look and understand some of the material again. I hope I did well on the test.
