"Oh, what a day!"

While I felt a little overwhelmed today, I know it's exactly what I need in order to become a better teacher, a better person. One thing I've already decided to adjust in my classroom is how I approach my curriculum. Anna and I discussed how we don't feel like we have enough time to do more writing. I feel like my curriculum has always been literature based, but this class is already connecting me to those "lost" feelings of enlightenment and empowerment that writing offers me. Also, I thought it was neat that Zach and I both compared reflexive writing to water. Both are ever flowing, ever changing, ever receptive to outside influences. I look forward to what's to come!
