The end of our road

Well, its the end of the road from here! That is until May 26. Educational Law, what a challenge thats going to be! Hey, Jeff, thanx for your patience with us. Indian people are always running on Indian time! I speak for myself of course! Its something that will definately grow on you!

Exceptional Learners

Hey,

I think one of the biggest challenges for me is going to be working with children with learning disabilities. The challenge would be finding what is suitable for exceptional learners and how do I customize their learning for them. I have beeen around exceptional learners before and kind of have an idea of how they communicate with others, however, I still find it not so neccesarily challenging but intriguing. The last course I took was Exceptional Learners and learned so much about them and I find it so interesting. I look forward to working with them in the future!

Education Goals

Hey,

Where can you seen yourself in 5 years from now? I had to ask myself this question before enrolling myself into this program. I had a vision, so to speak, of being in a classroom, teaching kids. If I could see it, I could be it! Thats my rule of thumb when choosing my educational goals. I will never quit, because quitters never win and winners never quit!

Group Presentations

Hey,

I think everyone has the same thing in mind when doing group presentations! We hate them! Is there a need for them? Definately, yes! It teaches us how to develop speaking and communication skills. I have to say that they are certainly growing on me! I can now see the need for them. For me, its a collaborative thing that teaches me to better communicate my ideas with my group members, therefore, enhancing my communication skills. When you put the time into presentations you get what you put in and that is usually a good mark! It makes it easier for us using the teleconferencing method because no one really sees us they can only hear us, less stress for me!

See ya soon!

Internet Predators!

Hey,

I was watching a show on internet predators, I gotta say its pretty scarey! Sometimes, we tend to be nieve when its comes to predators, we never think it will happen to us! Then 'us' becomes you and its ends up happening to you when you least expect it! I watched a show where young kids where stripping in front of their computers because these 'monsters' where paying them to do so. How does this happen! Shouldn't our kids know better? Shouldn't we teach them better? Doesn't parents teach their children about internet predators? Educate, educate and educate! This is my philosophy!

Just thought I would share that with you, it was on my mind. If I could prevent one person from getting hurt, its well worth it!

Spring Fever!

Hey its me,

I got the fever, spring fever that is! The nice weather is affecting me, I want to go CRAZY! Its so hard to stay focused when the weather is so beautiful. School is such a task to get my blogs and homework done, its terrible! I do love school, its just my priorities are somewhat screwed up!!!!!!!! I'm trying so hard to get things done, obviously not hard enough because I'm not completing my work when I should be! I know things we'll get better! They couldn't get any worse. Anywho, I will write again soon!

March Break!

Hey Everybody,

How is March Break for everybody? Is everyone enjoying their March Break? I love having my family home for the March Break. Its gives me a chance to spend some quality time with them. I also have my nephew Rainier who stays with me on the weekends when he comes home from school. We have a full house!

Well, got to go! My daughter needs me to take her to the potty!
