Almost Finished

It has been a long time. I have been really busy the last few months.

I finished my student teaching on Friday and I am just waiting on my Institutional Recommendation from ASU before I can get my teaching certificate. I am going to miss my students but I will be glad to be able to substitute teach again so I can make some money. I am still in one class that requires me to write a 15 page research paper on something I implemented into my classroom. It is a lot of work and due May 10th but I am getting it completed and hope to be able to keep my 4.0. Pending my paper, I will graduate on May 15th with my Masters of Education in curriculum and instruction. I am extremely excited.

I know many of you are about to groan but President Obama is coming to speak at the Big ASU commencement ceremony and Mom, Dad, Kyle, Lyndsay and I are going. I want to be able to tell people that I saw a president speak. Plus it is free for all graduating students.

Please do pray for the job situation. Arizona has already laid off 4000 teachers this year and finding a job is looking a little scary right now.
