During the course of my final semester, I completed a project that involved developing an integrated unit to teach at any grade level. I chose to do a kindergarten lesson on night and day. It begins with an activity where students are asked to draw a picture of what the sky would look like if [...]

If you want a picture of what my semester has been like, here it is:
That’s right. I’ve been so busy and stressed with school this semester that I haven’t had time to even THINK about taking it down.

I am now less than one semester away from TOSS, which is the last thing I do prior to student teaching.
Now don’t get the wrong idea. TOSS is not something that we do to children, or to anyone else for that matter. Although, judging by what I’ve heard from friends who are currently in TOSS, it [...]

I’m talking about the [...]

Well, I am now over a year into re-embracing the role of college student after having been out in the working world for several years, and I thought I might reflect a little bit on what it feels like. I will say this: it is definitely a weird place to be.
On the one hand, I [...]

Half.com is a subsidiary of Ebay where you can buy textbooks online for a fraction of what they would cost new. I found out about this from the professor in [...]
