In today's class we basically just revised our papers and helped other students try to get a good idea what to talk about in our papers. There were no readings for this week, and we didn't get to headlines but I think that by letting our peers help revise, we each got a better idea of what to discuss.
This semester has been great. I learned many important issues and strategies to run my future classroom. My experience in Newark was great and I consider myself lucky to have had the oppurtunity to spend briefly 30 hours in a new, high tech elementary school.
This school has changed some of my ideas about becoming a teacher. I was so set on teaching high school but elementary school [the higher grades] seems like it would be a good idea as well.
The host teacher I worked with gave me a lot of great ideas and advice for my future and I really enjoyed working with her and her students. I really felt at home when I was in Newark. It is a wonderful experience to start your initial field work with someone who is very knowlegable, caring, and dedicated to his or her career.
This class inspired me to want to still apply to the Teacher Educaiton program, and I look forward to keeping up the good work during the initiation process.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed this class. I also found it gave me a lot of useful experiences and inspiration. And you aren't the only person I heard say that they were originally thinking about teaching high school but through spending time at the elementary school in Newark started to make them change their minds.
