One of my learning goals is to be more involved in the classroom during the lessons. Last semester, I did mostly observation. I was very reserved because I was in a new place with people I did not know. They were only 6th graders, but it was still intimidating to go into a new classroom.
So far this semester, I feel that I have fit in with the class a lot better. I've been around the students for a while and they have warmed up to me and will ask me for help during class time. I taught a whole class lesson which really helped establish myself in the classroom.
I look forward to teaching more lessons and contributing more during class time. I think I have improved a lot this semester and I have enjoyed my time in my PDS so far.
