Reflection 11

Well this week seemed to be the climax of the class. It was a really good experience.

First off though, working in a group: I don't have the best group skills. I guess it's cuz I was always put into groups with slackers so I ended up doing most or all of the work. Now it's kind of just my nature to take charge and make sure all the work gets done. I try to not seem overbearing and include everyone. This time I kind of just kept quieter than usual and went with whatever was said. This in itself was an experience for me. It got me out my comfort zone by doing what I was told instead of what I decided to do. Sounds kind of wierd now that I've typed that out, but that's how it is.

As for the teaching, I totally butchered the one little story I was supposed to tell. I know I can do a lot better than I did, but even still I enjoyed being there and working with the kids. I still feel very confident that I can and want to do this; I just need more experience. The End.
