Well, tomorrow will be the first day of my second year at CECHS. Last year was great, and I am eagerly awaiting the good things I know are to come this year. This year I am on to whole new adventures!
Juniors!!! Seminar!!! Student Teacher!!!
I'm excited about all of the possibilities that each of these new adventures present. It's a new curriculum and a different role really. I'm excited though. I'm easily bored, so all of the changes will keep me on my toes. I'm looking for new connections between the other disciplines. As a team, we're exploring new technologies and new uses of technology.
Since this year's college biology schedule is different, we'll have the whole day Friday for seminar and extension activities. That means we have more freedom, and it also means last year's plans won't work without adjustments. We'll be reading The 6 Most Important Decisions You'll Ever Make by Sean Covey. We're also going to work with Mrs. Grogan on The Graduation Project.
I'll have a student teacher, Mr. Pitts, who will be with us from August 24 till December. Together we'll look at the world of seminar! I've not had a student teacher before, so that will be all new to me too. I'm sure Mr. Pitts will bring a new perspective to our seminar class. He's finishing up his degree at Appalachian State.
Here's to an awesome year with a new team, teaching a new subject, with new students!!!! Buckle up, 'cause here we go!!!
