Really enjoyed our create your classroom exercise because I love thinking about how my room will look like in the future! It really kinda puts to the point that very soon we’ll have the authority to run a classroom and set it up the way we want it! ^_^ I also really enjoyed our AEIS discussion, it really brought to light a lot of things that effect our schools and students. But its also brings to light what a lot of people don’t think that teachers have to think about concerning their schools. I’d also like to learn about the political side, like how school districts are formed, how funding/financing is made available and how the government is following through on school related laws/acts such as the No Child Left Behind Act. These are a lot of issues that I wasn’t aware of before that I think are very important for a teacher to understand and be aware of especially those of us that have never taught before.

Is really hard, and thats all I have to say about that.
