A nice respit

I have attended my two classes this week and the verdict is...wow, this is going to be great! My painting class consists of several works (10 in fact) that will follow some sort of guideline or principle. we meet twice a week for three hours a pop. it will make for long mornings, but ah such is the life of an artist. my other class is art and children. in this class which isn't much of a class, we will discuss appropriate methods for teaching the young ones art. i think there are five of us in the class. i know what you're thinking, you think? yes, i think because i was the only one there today for "class". The others already work in schools i believe, so it makes for fun times. luckily with this odd situation come perks. instead of being a MWF class for three hours it has been whiddled down to class on Monday from 5 to 7, and a one on one with the Prof at the appropriated normal time. which means my dear friends, no classes on Friday again, and technically none on Monday- just like the last year and a half of college. who knew!?

i am a bit nervous about this MW class though. it involves observations and lots of unit plans which i just have no idea about. i have to come up with 3 units featuring several themes and projects, create those projects, and finally implement them in one of my observation rooms. for someone diving right into teaching like i, it's very nerve-racking. hopefully it will be ok. we'll see. ok, back to tending my knowledge.
