December 4th

Today I was the only student observer in the classroom, which was very different for me because my partner has always been with me. In a way it was kind of nice having more presence in the classroom. I really enjoyed having more time with students individually today because it was more of a low key day than previous days have been. Today I told K. Rob that next week would be my last day, and I was taken back when she said, "Well if you ever want to come back and visit, or have any questions, need lesson plan ideas, or just want to chat feel free." I knew that throughout the semester I had really gotten to know K. Rob pretty well but I just didn't expect her to be so sincere when I left. I've worked with numerous professors, and teachers throughout my time here at UW-Stout and have built many wonderful relationships but it was just really nice getting that kind of sincerity from a seasoned educator, really taking an interest in my future as an educator.
