Coming to class as a "student" today was different and refreshing after so long being a "tutor." I was glad to have this longer time to reconnect with Team MAGEC. We're all making progress, and it's exciting! Annette's MAGEC PowerPoint was really impressive. Every touch was just right. You can really see the love and time she put into it. Those parents aren't going to know what hit them!
The sharing was great as always. I learn so much from everyone's experiences. I didn't know all that much about elementary or middle school before I started with Team MAGEC. Thanks for giving me insight into my post-graduation options.
Alas, it's back to work for us. With the majority of this semester squared away, we just have to maintain the motivation we had from working with our students and seeing them improve. While tutoring was (more) fun, for the rest of the semester we have to buckle down now and finish up those Addenda (because apparently that's the plural form!). As this semester ends and we don't get to see as much of Team MAGEC as we've grown used to, let us "keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths" (Walt Disney, http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/new.html).
You're so right, Christine. Although this portion of our task has ended, the teaching and the learning never stops. Let's hope that our students will take to heart all the tips and strategies that we implemented with them, and apply them to their everyday learning at school and elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteRight on! Onward we march into April and May to complete our class. It's the final stretch of some of the toughest work we've got in the program. Knock it out!
ReplyDeleteCan you believe it? In less than 2 months, we'll be finalizing our Addendum and celebrating our family literacy night...I hope everything goes well and we meet "target"!! Aim for the "A"!!
