EDCT+203+-+Week+2

This week there were a few assignments that I completed for class. The assignments were very realistic. The first one was to write a letter of welcome to the parents of your students at the beginning of the school year. This assignment was really fun for me. It was like we got to pretend that we were actually teachers and complete a real life task. It is meaningful to me to do this types of activities because they are things that we will be creating in the real world. It is more meaning to do assignments like this than to do trivial work. The other assignment that I did was to create a complete schedule in Microsoft word. This was a lot harder than I thought because I am not use to doing things like this. This was interesting because it taught me that sometimes you will be faced with tasks that should be easy to most people, but you might have a hard time completing. While this was difficult for me to get used to making tables and a complete weekly schedule in this program, I did it. It is important as a teacher to not give up and to also teach your students that quality as well and that is what this lesson taught me.
