Its been quite a while since I last posted. After finishing up my semester of coursework at University of Richmond, completing a long term subbing job as a Kindergarten assistant, and enjoying a nice long holiday break, the long anticipated student teaching semester is upon me. I am starting my first placement in 5th grade at Laurel Meadow Elementary School, a school in Hanover county that officially opened its doors in September of 2008. I will be in 5th grade through the end of February and then 2nd grade for March and April.
I don't really know what to expect, but I am really looking forward to meeting the students tomorrow! This week will be mostly observation, and I hope to be blogging regularly about how the student teaching experience is going. Stay tuned for more on life as a Laurel Meadow Lion!
