Days of Discovery

I've been working with a teacher at Discovery Elementary in Waite Park, MN. We have a wonderful, eager group of students. I am very blessed to be a part of the action, but also very exhausted! Elementary teachers have to be very strong and resourceful. This is an example of where "persistence" comes in handy.

I know I'm exactly where I should be, and I am determined to make the best use of my days at Discovery. I am looking forward to learning from each student. (They've already tried to teach me the words for "cat" and "dog" in Spanish, Somali, Korean, and Vietnamese!)

Hi Robyn, It sounds like the practicum is going OK. It's been an adjustment for me to do things exactly the way my cooperating teacher does them. I like your persistence. This week I'm feeling resilient.

Resilience is a great word, too!
