There is a difference!!

In my 3/4 MAC placement I have been teaching with another student teacher. I knew from the beginning that she was coming just a few days after me. I was a little nervous thinking there would be a sort of competition between us. It was awkward and first but I found her to be friendly. Our teachers told us that they wanted to do a bulletin board together and to put together a project for the students. I was excited but the other student teacher was not. She was hesitant toward many of my ideas but was not offering any herself. I just chose something for us. I decided for the board we would do a Great Wall and have the students write different things that they learned on the board. Once everything came together my partner was proud.
After many different occasions where we shared our ideas or expressed our ideas I was made very aware of the different between our preparation at Nyack and the preparation at other schools. I am so glad that we are encouraged to be creative, positive servants who want to go above and beyond for our students. God has truly blessed me!
