Deep or not so deep thoughts
Been doing a lot of thinking about things. Work is finally settling down but received some constructive criticism on my teaching. We are in an open plan unit with five classes in a space for six. So we all have to be careful of the noise levels.
I have the only year one two class while the others are all higher grades. My class has a child who has tested positive for Autism and Aspergers (parents don't think the test was valid howver, just that he needs work on his social skills) So the constructive criticism was some suggestions on what to do about the child mentioned above when he calls out and the general noise level.
Got to admit, her suggestions worked and she was real nice about it but just when I was getting a bit more confidence I'm back to double and triple checking everything.
Made me realise I need to work on that more. I know I passed two university degrees and I know I am doing the job right or I wouldn't still be here but emotionally I know I have issues.
On the other hand maybe all the thinking is because I had my birthday April 30.
