Oh yeah, I'm teaching!

This week is our second and last week of practicum. My fellow PC Trainee Shane and I were affecting hearts and minds, one future President at a time. We taught at a public middle school.

Yesterday was our last day in one of our classes. When we bid them farewell, I'm pretty sure there were a few actual tears. And the students were killing me, asking why we were there for only such a short time. That class already showed tremendous improvement in only two weeks. Even the unruly boys in the front quieted down and were on task during class. I will miss them. At least we have their illustrated stories they created in our classes on Narrative Text.
