Personal Concerns and Next Steps

The reason I chose this to blog about was as a result of the recent test I just took. My main concern is that I did not finish it! I really wanted to do well on it, so I took my time, and the time got away from me! I hope that I will be able to finish the questions I did not get to. Another concern I have deals with actually teaching mathematics in the classroom. Wednesday of this week I participated in project Coyote in which I helped teach in a first grade class and a third grade class for the day with fellow classmates. It was a great experience, but it did kind of worry me about actually teaching in my own classroom someday, and because math is by far my least favorite subject, I hope that as I go through this course, I will be shown examples of an effective way to teach elementary level students in ways that they understand. Other than those two, I have no concerns and have found this course to be very helpful, and I know that as it goes on, I will continue to learn new things and carry that information with me into my own classroom.
