Last week I taught math all week in my practicum and it was quite exhausting. It wasn't the fact that the concepts were hard to teach, solids and symmetry, but that when students didn't understand I had to think of different ways to explain it to them. Math concepts are hard to teach because it is hard to measure where a student is at when it comes to how they are in taking the information. It will be so much easier when I have my own classroom and can see where my students are using cgi. Sometimes when I am teaching math I feel like I just go around in circles; I hope this is something that will go away as I get more experience.
I believe I am ready for the quiz tomorrow. I am really enjoying this class, it is helping me realize that I can help students instead of frustrating them even more.
