Blog 11: Holiday Project Update

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you do over the break with your senior project?
    Over my winter break I focused on my independent component 1. As part of the final product I will turn in I am doing a portfolio that will include all of the activities that I have done with my students throughout these last couple of months.

2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why?  What was the source of what you learned?
One of the most important lessons that I have learned from the work I've done is that finding activities that teach children something as well as give them something fun to do after a long day at school. Since the children in my class are a large age range I have to be very picky about the activities that I do.
3.  If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers for your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
  If I had to do a 10 question interview I would interview the director of the the day care where I do my hours. The reason is that she has been working in the field so long that she has valuable experiences and a different perspective than most of the teachers I work with. She was a day care teacher before she became a director so she can give many different perspectives.
