I started my practicum on Tuesday. I got assigned to teach in first grade in the Nebo school district at Rees Elementary. I love everything about it. I've only gone twice, but I still love it. The kids are completely adorable, I already have a painting on my fridge (which is new, more to come about that) and my teacher has been wonderful. I will be teaching my first lesson this Tuesday! My first lesson will also be my first lesson observed/graded. Duh duh duh. Whatever. I figure, the less I stress about it, the better I'll do. Right? The school I'm at is only 8 years old and every staff member I have met has been welcoming and friendly. The principle is so nice and is getting us involved in the school in every way he can. It's going to be a great experience!
Josh is still chugging away at his classes as well. He went in and saw his advisor recently and got graduation all figured out. We are both on track to graduate in December (as was the plan) and Josh has less credits left than he thought which means he can work more this summer and take less classes. All good news. Josh also starts solo flying soon. He has his first check flight coming up soon (way delayed because of medical issues with South Carolina and Utah doctors trying to mesh records). It was pretty frustrating for a while but everything was approved and so he can continue on.
Well, that's about it for our school updates. More updates are coming soon!
