Day One of Class: A mixture of emotions

I was excited as I waked into class on the first day of school. It was almost like I was a little kid again walking into my fourth grade science class looking around for all of my friends. I was particularly excited knowing that we were going to be doing science so I was looking forward to this class.

The first seat that I sat at was at the emptiest table. I just recognized a couple of faces of people that I have seen in the previous education classes that I have taken.

Once class started, I was a little overwhelmed with all of the online use there was. I thought to myself, what happened to teachers using a paper and pen and printing out the syllabus to hand to us in class? After going through all of the online assignments in class, I felt a little better about it. I was a little more open minded about it and thought that using all of these online resources will only benefit me in the long run. I look at the internet now as an important tool to use for when i teach in my own classroom. It is important to get to know how to use the internet in a wide variety of ways to use for when I become a teacher.

At the end of the class period, I was still a little overwhelmed but I know that hopefully all my hard work that goes into science will only help me and will be a great learning experience for when I have my own classroom!
