Clinical Hours

For the first time this entire semester I finally feel like I'm starting to begin work more closely related to my major and my career.

On Friday I will be observing and hopefully teaching special education students in a public elementary school. From 9-2:30 I will be helping students with special needs and getting prepared for what my future classroom may entail.

With strict dress codes and proper classroom etiquette, I'm both excited and nervous for this experience. Rather than sitting in a classroom and taking notes for hours upon hours, I'd much rather actually go to a classroom and learn from hands on experience.

I feel this is the best way to prepare future teachers and also more exciting. While I do have some experience in a classroom, the school systems here differ vastly from those in Connecticut.

I can't wait!
