My First Day in ED447

Today is my first day back at school starting with my Instructional Technology class.  I just learned how to create a blog for the first time and created my own Google account.  This is fairly new to me, I've never blogged before and I am looking forward to it.

This is my second year here at Caldwell College.  I have a full, busy schedule this semester, consisting of 16 credits.  I'm taking biology including a lab, two education classes, a literature class, and a writing class.  I am also observing 60 hours at an elementary school in my town, Nutley, NJ. I did this last semester as well and enjoyed it very much. I like to see what really goes on in the classroom and what I will be experiencing as a teacher.  I have a lot of patience with kids and enjoy them very much.  I've always wanted to be a teacher since I was younger; I used to play school all the time.(and I was always the teacher) I am really looking forward to this class specially with Dr. Ries.  I took her ED206 course last semester and she presented us with such a wonderful class.  I learned a lot with her and she is very helpful if you ever find yourself struggling.
