This blog was created to capture my thoughts and ideas throughout my year long journey to becoming a teacher in the MAT program. I am guided by the idea that Only when we reflect back on our experiences, are we then able to learn from them. Therefore my goal is to capture as many snapshots of my experiences, thoughts, attitudes, perceptions and reflections as I can. I truly believe, Learning is a never ending process and a this year for me is one of big personal and professional growth. So what better way to hold onto these self altering Experiences in Deweys sense then by journaling. I am not a writer by nature, instead I am one who understands nature and her intricate workings. Therefore My words may not poetically embody my experiences and feelings eloquently. In fact my purpose is just to get my thoughts, ideas and reflections down on paper so to speak. The following entries may be fragmented blurbs of passion, curiosity or frustration. Well I can almost guarantee that they will be. Either way whatever they are, they will tell a honest tale of my growth/evolution over this next year.
