What a week it was!

This week was a new adventure for me. It's been a while since I've sat in any kind of class that I really had to concentrate and use my brain. I felt like this week that I had to dust off my brain. I was so excited to get to attend this class. In the past year I changed my teaching direction. For the past 10 years I had been working in a severe profound classroom and then this year I moved to teaching inclusion in a first grade classroom.  As I entered the school year I felt so unprepared but I was blessed to be placed in the classroom with an excellent teacher. She was willing to teach me along with her twenty first graders. As the year progressed I began to settling into my new job but it was obvious to me that I needed some more training if I was really going to be able to help these students the way they needed to be served. During this week of class I kept thinking if I had only had all this information I could have helped my students  more. This week was exactly the information that I needed. I am excited about the coming year and applying this new found knowledge.
