So Sad that This is the End of the Road for English 341

By far, this has been my favorite class this semester. What an incredible way to begin life as a future teacher here at Chico State University. I have learned so much from you Mrs. Kim Jaxon. I know I will run into you from time to time, may it be on twitter, or on campus. I mean, the growth you have given to me will be put to good use in my teaching. When I met, I didn’t know how to blog, and because of you I do. I built an entire website, didn’t even know you could do that! Thank you for giving me the proper tools to love reading and writing and look at this in different eyes. I truly was a dull reader…now, I have a list a mile high to begin as soon as the semester ends. I wasn’t aware of my capabilities to be able to read so many books in one semester. Thank you for giving that to me. Probably not what you want when it comes to my final reflection…so here it goes…again.

Looking Back & Moving forward, this is the image and statement I have towards class and learning. I look back on the positive experiences that taught me valuable lessons that will not only improve me as a whole but will allow me to entrust it with others that surround me; children, parents, and teachers alike. I feel that if I didn’t get challenged, then I didn’t learn. In this class, I did just that—LEARN.

LEARN that reading can be fun,

LEARN that anyone can write poetry,

LEARN that teaching is leading by example,

LEARN that I can do anything I put my mind to!

Look at that another poem:)

No really, I have enjoyed this class immensely…fun people, enthusiastic teacher, and assignments that were interesting and not the typical hair-pulling, teeth-grinding, nail-biting type of boring.
