October 3 – Week 3
October 3rd, 2007 by reimer
September is now behind us and we are moving into the heart of the fall season. Time is moving quickly and practicum time is just around the corner. If I ask myself if I feel I am ready for the practical training portion of the program, I would have to say yes and it will be a very good feeling to finally be done all of this schooling. I don’t know for sure how I will feel once I am teaching or what the job prospects are for me but time will tell and I am very confident I will adapt. I was able to track down a couple of other collogues recently, both Tech Ed teachers and both working out in the Kootenays. I think it would be good to go home as all of the friends and family support, if we are to have another baby that would be surely welcomed. The presentation by Louie Guadet was quite interesting; he is the coordinator for project literacy here in Kelowna. He deals with literacy issues regarding Tradesmen and the general public here in the valley, might be a good one for your course if others do not ask him for next year. There are many applications for my education and experience but again I will have to see transpires come the next year. I had heard some talk that moving the Friday visits around to different schools might be beneficial for exposure? I don’t know what to say about this as I don’t know enough about the different schools, staff and programs to say if one is better than another, I am willing to bet it will be all about what I personally can get and take out of my practicum time regardless of where it is set up. The school visit tomorrow is at Elementary and I am quite curious to see the difference in the classroom dynamics from the secondary schools and how the teachers deal with the kids. I know that my one son can be a lot of work to deal with but 15-20 will be something special to see, I guess I will have to comment on that one next time.
