Today I was in contact with my cooperating teacher for pre-student teaching. I am starting my "observations" on February ninth. I plan on attending the school every Monday and Wednesday during a class called "Art Explore 8" until I have at least completed fifteen hours. At this rate, I will be spending two hours per week in the classroom and will likely be done by mid April. This seems to be a very manageable schedule for me and I am looking forward to getting started.
Over winterm, I completed fifty hours in an English language learner class and a learning disability classroom at a middle school. I observed, assisted, and even taught at the school. I was disappointed since I did not spend any time in the art room during this experience, so I am looking forward to applying what I learned in the ELL and LD room to an art classroom.
I am also looking forward to spending time at the middle/high school because I hope to teach at the secondary level.
