COE

I had my orientation with the College of Education today. I had to sign another "declaration of intent" stating that I really do plan on teacher assisting this fall. I also had to watch a 12 min video on blood borne pathogens. The acting was hysterical! Very nice comic relief to the 3 hours of repetitive information. I received my permit for the classes I will need, and I signed up for them right away at the registrar (we are not allowed to sign up online for these classes and the permit must be presented). Happily, I got two classes in Muskegon so I won't have the extra wear and tear, not to mention gas mileage, on my car!!

I will have morning assisting five days a week with a monday afternoon seminar. I will have three classes: Reading, management, and 4 1/2 days during the semester for another Education seminar-like thing. I also have to get another permit for an English class.

I should receive my placement later this spring and meet my cooperating teacher for an interview. This all makes it so real! I am finally there after years of hard work. And from what I hear that was the easy part. Things are about to get very, very hectic! I am so glad I will get the spring and summer off.

In other news: LOST was NOT a rerun tonight! Although I missed half of it 'cause my class goes 'till 8:50 and then I have the half hour drive home. :(
