As of today I have successfully completed my first week of student teaching at Charleswood Junior High and what a week it has been! Its funny to think that only a few years ago the thought of going into Music Education hadn't even crossed my mind, and now I am finished two years of my degree and loving it more and more with each passing day. I am encouraged and uplifted to think that even though I had not planned on doing this with my life, God led me to a place He knew I would love. I am so filled with joy to know that God will guide me along the best pathway for my life. As it says in Psalm 32, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you." (verse 8) If you're ever uncertain and worried about the future, remind yourself of this beautiful promise! Gods dreams and plans are often a million times better than our own! Try to trust him!
I'm really excited with how my first week of student teaching went, so I thought it might be nice to share some of my favorite moments so far:
- A couple students telling me that no one has been able to get them to be THAT quiet since the beginning of September and that they were amazed by my teaching!
- Being greeted as Miss Bittner
- Figuring out the students master plan of making up fake names (they were so disappointed that I knew what they were going to do!)
- Teaching a full day of classes on my fourth day of student teaching! Crazy but such a fun time.
- Having the students laugh at my jokes!!! ( best thing ever!)
- Two girls coming up to me saying, " You're such a great teacher! Seriously, you're sooo good!"
Hope your week was amazing too!! And here is a little challenge for your weekend:
