It's the 3rd week already!

Hi Everyone! I can't believe this is already the beginning of week 3. It is going by so quickly and I have been very busy with my classes.

Since I am a secondary education mathematics major, I am currently in my Block 2. As a secondary education major, you have 2 blocks. The first is traditionally in your 2nd semester Sophomore year. Included in these block classes are classroom management, methods for teaching, and media I. In my current block classes, I have media II, methods for teaching, and educational psychology. These classes definitely keep me busy. This weekend, I spent my time studying for my first test in educational psychology. I am hoping it goes well!

This week is our first SESPESA meeting, which is the secondary education club. On Wednesday, we will be having pizza at our meeting and talking about things we need to do this semester in order for us to meet all of our deadlines, for student teaching and those who will be going into Block 1. We will also be planning some fun things to do with the club such as movie nights, speakers, etc.

Tomorrow night is a meeting for the honors program. I have been involved with the honors program since my freshman year and this semester I am actually completing a capstone project, which is one final project that completes the honors program for me. I am writing a paper on the differences between urban and rural education. For the capstone, I am able to pick anything I would like to do, and since being an education major and seeing the differences between these two different areas, I thought that would be a great one for me.


Have a great week and check back for my next post!
