I love learning new things, and new things for my students. I hope to learn a lot of teaching ideas that are outside the box. I have a population of students who are always learning outside the box, and I could use all the ideas I can get. During thing 1, I had goose bumps watching the movie, and reading the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">article</span>. It really makes you think as our world is changing, that we as teachers need to change to meet our students diverse learning needs. Going to the computer lab isn't just a "blow off" anymore, kids can do real learning in there. In no way will knowing others are reading my blog effect my writing. I have always been taught don't put anything you wouldn't want on the front page of the newspaper out there for others to read. I am an open book, and I am very excited to learn about everything this course has to offer!<br /></em>MomWifeTeacherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11894736884294040245noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3622994750874597091.post-68129770182264164542008-11-10T19:20:00.000-08:002008-11-10T19:24:41.106-08:00StressHello!<br />Well, I am LOVING my job, but I have a little problem. I have two <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">parapro's</span>, and I am so thankful for all that they do, but one of them is a B****! She is ALWAYS <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">complaining</span>, about everything. She has been doing this for 15+ years, and quite honestly I think she is DONE. It is so hard to stay positive when you work with such a downer. My other para is now my best friend. Her and I do things outta work, and we are each others support. We never rub it in her face that we are friends, but she just gets worked up over nothing.<br /><br />When you work in special education it is draining...Not physically, but emotionally. No one needs to the extra stress of dealing <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">with</span> his type of person. O well, all I can do is stay positive. I am there for the kids, and I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">have</span> to remember that.<br /><br />On a good note I start at Madonna University this Spring! I am doing my masters program in autism. My friend is doing it with me! We will be graduates on March 2001! That also means a huge pay increase, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">yay</span>!<br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Ok</span>, I am off to get a good nights rest. I have <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">conferences</span> all week. Goodnight :)<br /><br />My SunshineMomWifeTeacherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11894736884294040245noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3622994750874597091.post-29054579242183795692008-11-05T16:51:00.000-08:002008-11-05T16:55:46.068-08:00First Post<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZbl2bx1zIRfKN8mCM_p8kmZGkPrlgXwVJM72H7VdZvV9iJlugDg5ThsP_cnVMfgND9Z3CGWx2ZdPgNuxgoOphAp67UFeVBl3dl4VaQDbx7UKzZe1qnFzgLmA_aGUFMPfYvD-krcj6CMI/s1600-h/P1010037.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZbl2bx1zIRfKN8mCM_p8kmZGkPrlgXwVJM72H7VdZvV9iJlugDg5ThsP_cnVMfgND9Z3CGWx2ZdPgNuxgoOphAp67UFeVBl3dl4VaQDbx7UKzZe1qnFzgLmA_aGUFMPfYvD-krcj6CMI/s320/P1010037.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5265341730635491522" border="0" /></a><br />I am part of the new trend, blogging! I am not a very good writier, but I think this is a good way to release stress, and talk about the everyday things that happen in my life.<br /><br />As we speak, my 21 month old son is screaming my name "na na" because he doesn't want to go to bed. We put him to bed at 7 tonight, because this is becoming a trend. He just wants to stay up and play. It is so cute, and I want to just rush in there and let him play.<br /><br />I am so excited for the holidays this year. I love this time of year, and it is going to extra special this year because Elijah can "understand" what is going on. Well, I will leave you all with a picture of my sun shine.MomWifeTeacherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11894736884294040245noreply@blogger.com2
