And thats all for this week,
Ms. Brookes
![]() As the semester comes to a close, I can't help but look back at the beginning of my experience with the residency and how it has begun to shape me into the person I've always wanted to be. I can honestly say that being accepted into UTRPP has changed my view of being a teacher and everything that goes into preparing to become a teacher to leading a classroom on your own. Each day it has seemed that I've discovered that there is another skill to master! Teaching, it seems, takes practice in every aspect like making copies or the language you use when teaching a lesson. This semester linked together literacy, classroom management, literature, and a child's development. Each class connected to each other, what we learned in emergent literacy was reiterated in children's literature, both classes sparked a love for literature and how much importance it holds in children's lives. We learned that literature has a powerful affect on students, its a wonderful starter for a unit or way to expose children to the vocabulary they need to grow. In classroom management and child development we learned the reasoning behind why children misbehave and how our teaching styles play a large role in how our classroom runs. As the days start counting down to when the semester ends, I find myself wondering how the time went by so quickly and while I'll enjoy the time off of school I know I'll miss my second grade babies. And thats all for this week, Ms. Brookes
