Blessings

Once again, this week was a roller coaster ride, mainly in management and pacing. I was up late nearly every night planning lessons and creating and searching for worksheets. I'm SO glad it's Friday!

On Monday, the school principal observed me. On Tuesday, my supervisor observed me. Today, the director of field experiences observed me. All three - and my CT - came to the conclusion that I am not really ready to teach, specifically when it comes to management. The director suggested that I take a 10-week course that will focus on the skills I have and the skills I need. Other options also came up for what else I can do so I can stay in education, specifically with the skills I have and what i know. I e-mailed the director about what to do now, but it all comes down to two things: 1) I'm not going back to the classroom on Monday and 2) I may or may not have to hold off on graduation. Before I came home, my CT and I talked about how this could be a blessing in disguise, that now I can think about where I can go from here, the path I can take now, and what I can do. I'm just really impatient about the fact that I don't know what's going to happen.
