Field Trip!
January 18th, 2006 at 6:17 pm
Today was a big day in the 3rd grade. We went on a field trip to Mill Mountain Theatre to see the world premiere of The North Star. It is an adaption of the book by Peter Reynolds of FableVision. As a book and a play, The North Star is an extremely powerful tool for both educators and anyone who is struggling with a decision to follow their dreams. For me the story rings true with my recent decision to change careers. I am stepping out into the unknown and following a different path. At times the path has been bumpy and hard to follow. However, no matter how dark it gets, I will continue to see my dream which continues to shine brighter than ever. Wish me luck and God bless!

That’s right, it’s time to go back to school for the both of us. Jennifer started her last semester of nursing school today. As for me, I begin next Tuesday the 17th. However I am really going back to school. All the way back to the 3rd grade. That’s right! For the next 7-weeks I will be completing my practicum experience and credits at Crystal Spring Elementary School. After over a year of preparation through UVa, it is time for me to be thrown to the wolves. Just kidding! I am really excited about the whole process. I have been waiting on this for quite some time now. As for work I will be taking a temporary leave of absence until early March. After my practicum is complete, I will be able to apply for my state license. This will take some time, so my plan is to return to work in March with the hope of getting a teaching job next fall. Wish us both luck as we both near major changes in our careers.
