Education

I am grateful for education. I know I HAVE to say that because I'm a teacher. But I'm also grateful for teacher education! And even more importantly, the feeling I get when I finish a class. :) This feeling came last Friday when I finished my 2-year math endorsement. Lots of people ask what that means. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure. Dictionary.com says an endorsement is an approval or sanction. So I guess I am now finally approved to teach math. OR it means that I spent the past 2 years taking 18 credits worth of classes in order to improve my ability to both teach and understand elementary mathematics.
I know, I know. Elementary math? That's easy stuff! Let's have a chat and I have a few questions for ya to see if it really IS easy stuff. :) I'm grateful for my teachers and fellow classmates who endured the past 2 years with me. I learned a TON and will actually miss it. I know, I'm a nerd!
Yes, this really is up on my fridge.

Now bring on the Masters of Education!! (To be started this fall...)
