I went exactly one month with out writing in this thing.
I've been so busy lately that I've hardley had time for any internet shinanigins. I've also been writing more in my actual, tangible prayer journal, so I guess I just kind of left this alone.
In summary, Kyle, if you're reading this, thanks for the inspiration to start writing again!
Middle Schoolers are composing 3/4 of my life as of now:
-Age to Age for 3-4 hours on Monday, and a recent Age to Age trip to Springdale
-Observing 4-6 hours/week in an 8th grade Social Studies classroom
-Tutoring (reading recovery) once a week in a 5th grade classroom
-3+ hours/week of Intro to Education class
Some of this I love, some of this I despise.
If I hear or read "Integrative curriculum" or "cognitive development" one more time, I may be very temped to hike Mt. Nebo and hurl myself off its highest peak.
Speaking of kids...I'm in the interview-ish process of my potential summer job. Again. (I told Camp War Eagle I'm not coming...eliminating all safety nets.)
I'll find out sometime this month. God is really testing my patience. I'm so ready to just KNOW.
Because of all the above info, I seriously had to stop myself today and question, "Whoa? When did I start liking kids so much?" This time a few years ago, I would have said, "No way, Jose."
Then again, this time a few years ago, I guess I was a kid.
I suppose that changes things a bit.

I am praying for everything about this summer!! Keep me updated!
well honey, you are going to hear "cognitive development" for the rest of your college years and basically the rest of your life. freshman and sophomore year is fairly busy with all of the observing, etc. you have to do, but it will slow down. i'm glad you are enjoying it! i just hope you don't ever have a class with some thirty year old dude who just wants to take his kids on field trips, and not teach them anything...
miss you!
Well i'm glad i could help!!! I guess you have also inspired me to write again in mine for the time being. haha.
I'm glad you have developed a real passion for Kids! You stay committed to your passions.
