BLOG 4... TIMELINE #2

I’m going to take this timeline entry back to 1997. I was in second grade. My teachers name was Ms. Dean but my former best friend and I called her “Mean Dean”. She was the meanest lady I had ever encountered, well at least at that age. At that age I hope you wouldn’t encounter a even a handful of mean people but I would certainly hope you would never encounter someone as mean as her. She was the worst teacher in the world. She would say the meanest things, put us down, and played favoritism. During Halloween she even took my costume from me because a kid claimed I hit him with my sword. I could tell story after story about her for days but the memories are miserable.
I guess where I’m going with this is, I now think of her to this day. I always wanted to become a teacher just to show how nice and pleasant they could be. I always wanted to be able to do things she never thought I could do. At that time I thought the greatest accomplishment would be to become what she was. A teacher! She could never say I wasn’t capable of something if she found that we now had the same career. Basically I wanted to show her out. Most importantly I wanted to prove that every teacher didn’t have to be a WITCH!!!

Timeline 2

2010
Throughout my time line I will incorporate personal experiences and time is history. This blog in particular will be revolved around one of my many personal experiences.
I haven’t always wanted to be a teacher. However, I always knew I wanted to work with kids. I often question if education is the right path for me to take. In all actuality I really don’t know if this is really want to with my life. This is my third education class. Although I’ve enjoyed them and the many assignments I’ve completed, I’m still left in doubt. This summer I was blessed with a job working with kids. It was very interesting and just mad me thing even more if I even want to work with children for the rest of my life.
This summer I worked at Hiram House Camp. I was a 24hr camp counselor. This was by far the hardest job I’ve ever been employed at. However, I left the job with memorable experiences and new ways of thinking. During my time there I was placed with a lot of different kids. Different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, etc. Some of the children mad my time at camp a complete disaster. That part really mad me question if education or working with kids was my calling. I got frustrated at times to the point where I wanted to leave with no return. But I would have to say each kid touched me in a way. I really enjoyed the connections that I made with certain children. This job really left me with a see-saw look on my life and education.
