Exciting and Kinda Scary

Just found out that my teacher’s son has an upper respiratory infection, so he is going to have to stay home with him tomorrow. That means that I’m teaching… every single class. Kind of scary, since I’m used to him being there for support, but I’m sure that I’ll survive it, no matter how bad it gets!

In other exciting news, I found out my Praxis scores today! If you don’t know much about the Praxis, they are tests that assess your knowledge in your content area, as well as teaching strategies. The scores are out of 200. A passing score in Biology is a 146 and a passing score on the Principles of Learning and Teaching 7-12 is a 161. I scored a 168 and 191 (!!!) respectively. The level of excitement that  I feel about not having to take these tests again is indescribable! I’m so happy =D

It’s time to revel in another one of my awkward videos! Today I’m responding to Spenser, who gave me some great questions to talk about. I’m giving a little taste into what all my semester of student teaching involves, as well as some insight about what I will actually be teaching.

I tried to post this last night, but I fell asleep while it was uploading!

This is my first video ever, so it’s a little rough, but let me know if you like this format over reading. This is a lot quicker for me so it may mean that I get to post more often!
