Final Countdown...

I have come so far since the beginning of this placement. I went into teaching because I was in it for the long run to make a difference, to help students become better people and life-long learners, and to grow. Who would have thought, 32 third graders would have made a difference in my life, in who I have become, and grown into. I'm a changed person (for the better) because of what these students bring into my life. They're simply inspirational and make me want to do the best I can so they can succeed because they deserve that. The student teaching is coming to a close and I'm not ready to leave these students. =( Do I really have to start a new chapter in my life?
