The past month has flown by and I have leaned much more than I anticipated. I have interviewed for jobs and tomorrow I will interview for another job. For the last three years I have worked in a Kindergarten classroom hoping to get a job teaching this grade level. Well...that has not worked out the way I had hoped. I am interviewing for a third grade position tomorrow. A month ago I don't think I would have considered teaching third grade, but after this class I know that I CAN do this. I started thinking about all the Web 2.0 tools that we have learned about and I am excited about the possibility of teaching third grade. In kindergarten it would be January before you could really use any of the writing tools with consistency. But, in third grade you could hit the ground running. Student created podcasts, videos, VoiceThreads, the possibilities are endless. Will I be outside my comfort zone...oh yes...but if this class has taught me anything it is, you can do it! I am starting to feel like a Nike commercial. I will keep you posted. So stay tuned and find out if I get the job.
