Skills

This is my first week teaching all day and I am proud that I have made it through the week almost. Tonight I was thinking back to a few weeks into student teaching and I felt like I would never be ready to teach  all day. I am happy to say that things get easier every day and I am enjoying myself. I have gained so many skills over student teaching and I hope to gain many more. I am able to manage a classroom by myself from the planning to delivering lessons and keeping up on grading and procedures. I have been trying to work on giving directions in a really clear way and on asking good questions and questioning techniques. I feel like I am getting better at both of those things as well. It is hard to believe I only have one more full week in fourth grade due to conferences.
