The Closer You Get

      Oh boy, I'm just sitting here watching YouTube BookTube videos and looking at my computer screen from time to time debating on whether or not I actually want to complete the rest of this homework. It seems like the closer I get to completing the certification, the more conflicting conversations I have with myself on whether or not doing the homework is worth it. I am so tired of homework, lol. But I also think that my biggest issue isn't even homework, it's just being tired and having to balance homework with my husband and my boys, my extended family and in laws, friends, and church events. Honestly the only homework I want to have is coming up with church events and doing bible studies, I don't want to have to write all these paper and lesson plans. I also know that it is going to be worth it in the end and I"M ALMOST DONE!! Just trying to come up with more clever ways of keeping myself motivated to finish school, lol. Anywho, rant over! I'm gonna get me some shut eye. Goodnight!

 P.S. If you were wondering why I am watching BookTube videos, it's because I love reading about people's TBRs and what they thought of book. Part of my YouTube channel is books and the other part of my channel is unboxing video which I'm about to post here in 10 min.

Teaching 6th Grade Science

Well hello everyone, Long time no hear. Having a blog is not something I'm the greatest at, lol. Well it hasn't been a full year since my last blog, so that's good. This school year has been intense and busy. I'm at a different school this year, hopefully, I won't have to move to a different school next year. I plan on staying with 6th grade and the team that I have. It's so much work to move to a different school. I've been moved to different schools a lot without being asked, only 1 move in the past 10 years in education has been my choice. This year I'm trying to make another choice and stay with 6th grade. Teaching 6th grade is TOUGH and definitely not for the faint of heart, but it's also been very rewarding. It's allowing me to be more reflective on how I am as a teacher and the areas that I need to grow in. It's also been WAY less of a headache to teach one subject. I feel like Elementary education isn't integrated enough in order ...

Word Walls

I've always liked the idea of Word Walls but from my experience in the classrooms that I have the privilege of working in and observing in, it's hard to utilize word walls the way they need to be used, due to the lack of space in the classrooms. With district and state policies saying that there needs to be so many things on the walls already from quick step by step instructions of units that need to be up, like the fact families in Multiplication, etc., the different ways to multiply and so much more. There's not enough space to have a nice word wall without it being partially or almost completely covered. The idea of Word Walls to me is also not a concept that I'm completely on board with because I often wonder, if students are still having a hard time remembering how to spell words properly or remember what the words mean, how does a word wall serve them properly?  Well after a long talk over many weeks with a 6th grade teacher and looking at the creativity of a 4t...

Excited About Blogging

Image
Excitement Ozzing From My Mind!! I am so excited to start this blogging thing. It's something I've never done before but have been interested in in the past but didn't know how to get started so I just let go of the idea. I am excited to be doing this now for my Teaching Techniques education class. What makes this even more exciting is that I know this class, past classes, and future classes will help me on my journey in becoming a classroom teacher as well as helping me with the current space I have decorated and furnished below that was assigned to me by my building principal to do small group LLI (Leveled Literacy Intervention). I'm excited to see how this class will help me better teach my groups this year and better prepare me for substituting throughout the school and for my future of teaching a classroom of more than 6 students. Hope you all are just as excited to read these blogs as I am to post them.
