Dear Blog,
I have been anticipating this final
entry for weeks! This is officially my
final blog of my Master’s program! Yes,
this calls for a celebration!
Now on to business… This practicum experience has been a great
way to spend my July! Chelsea and I were
lucky to have a great group of five first graders. These students were all very eager and
motivated to learn reading and math.
They came to “school” each day with smiles on their faces and snacks in their
hands. We taught these students basic
first grade mathematics and reading skills, along with social skills. We focused our instruction on high frequency
words and numbers and operations.
I learned that I love working with
younger students. Previously, I have only
worked with second through fifth grades. First grade was a new experience for me! I enjoyed working with them and was eager to
watch them learn new skills.
I will always remember this
experience and am so grateful to have the best co-teacher!
Adios, blogging world,
MM
