Inquiry Celebration Reflection

After going to the inquiry celebration, I got some really neat ideas about different strategies and games to use in math with my kindergartners next year.  Both session I went to were intern sessions and they were very beneficial to me.  Most of them focused on touch point math and different strategies to assist students when teaching math.  Math has never been my strong suit, and when I began teaching, it really terrified me.  I am very grateful that I was able to visit both sessions because I learned so much and took so much away with me that I think will be very helpful in my teaching.

Practicum Plan Reflection #2

When I look at my practicum plan I get so excited!! I can't believe how fast this semester is winding down. I have just a few more things to get done and I am currently working on them now. My goals have also been very well planned out. I am much more comfortable with teaching math and I have been able to gather data and analyze it very quickly. At the beginning of the semester, it seemed like there was so much to do, but now I can't believe that it has all gotten done and I have lived through another semester!
