I was just sitting here thinking about what it is going to be like when I have finally graduated from Texas A&M, whenever that may be. I have suddenly become a fan of the 5 year plan!:) It is scary for me to think that one day I will be done with school forever and have to find a real job. Since I am an education major, I am hoping to become a kindergarden teacher. I got to thinking about what my class would look like and what books I would want my kids to read. I would like to have a classroom full of color, perhaps crafts made by my students. I am a big fan of craft making. In my apartment I am the one always making signs and banners for birthdays, holidays, and even just for fun! Glue, scissors, tape, and construction paper are all found in abundance in my apartment. I think that is a reflection of what kind of teaching style I would have. Beside making lots of crafts, I think that I would like to have my kids read a lot of books. I think that reading is really important and it helps a lot in children's vocabulary and grammer. I didn't start getting into books until I was in fifth grade, but I wish I had been into books sooner. Truth is, nothing really sparked my intersest. I think I mentioned in one of my earlier posts about how Harry Potter was the book that started my fond interest in books. I don't think it really matters what book it is, whether it's historical, sci-fi, fantasy, fiction, or nonfiction, so long as it grabs the student's attention. So that is basically my thoughts about teaching so far. Life after college is going to be a colorful adventure and I am excited already!
