I haven't forgotten you!

I am going to post this even though I wrote it on August 4th. Hopefully I will be writing everyday not or at least a few times a week.

It has been a crazy couple of weeks. Since returning from Goddard, I have been reading and looking for work non stop.

On the work front, I have got a job working in a after care program, and I will sub the next couple of days. I hope to blog about my experience and relay my stories and observations. The opportunity to be around children will be nice. I have missed working with kids the last couple of months. Hopefully this job will lead me to a classroom position as that is where I would ideally like to be. It is a great start. I think I get to swimming tomorrow, which should be fun.

On the School front, I am excited and overjoyed to finally have the chance to start my studies on Education. I am finding my love and passion for education growing with every page I read. I have finished two books since I have been back. Both eye opening.

Last night I finished Ron Miller's What Are Schools For?: Holistic Education in American Culture. I can't just write a few sentences about this book, so I will wait to write a longer blog about it. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the history of education and alternatives models of schooling and learning.
