Today, like all Thursdays, I have my education field experience. My placement at Villa Maria Academy High School has been such a blessing: my cooperating teacher is great, the faculty has been very welcoming, and the girls are funny, endearing, and eager to learn. Today I have to teach an intro on the Great Gatsby. I can hardly believe that I only have three observations left until I'm finished for the semester... and next semester I'll do my student teaching here!
This time of year is always incredibly hectic... actually, I can't think of a time during a school year that's relaxing, unless it's the summer! But it's right before Spring Break, and when we come back, it'll be April and we'll only have a little over a month left of classes. The SEPCHE conference at which I have to present two papers rapidly approaches. Everyone always says that this semester is the hardest, though, so I'll survive it and then... oh my goodness, it'll be senior year! Incredible.
