When it
comes to support I have my family and co-workers. My strongest supporter was my
husband until he passed away four years ago. He was the one who encourage me to
take the step into getting my BA. I guess you could say he still supports me
because I thought if he believed in me then I can go all the way and get my
Masters. I also have my son and his wife encouraging me to do my best and
telling me I will succeed. My co-workers are there showing me how to do things
in the classroom and will help me to figure out things on my own and with them
I am learning and they are learning from me. We work has a team and this helps
me to be a team player and it helps me to never give up on a dream.
My one challenge
is that for the first time I am going to be in charge of the class for one
week. I am going to make lessons plans and set up groups, this is something I
watched the teacher do and he thought it would be helpful to me to understand
what it is like to teach a Special Ed class. I am nervous but I know that they
will support and help me to feel comfortable. It is great that I know the
children because I worked with them last year.
If I did not
have the support of all these wonderful people I would not be where I am today.
We all need a little help and support sometime in our life. I also have my
faith which helps me each and every day.
