Today I went to Boyd County Middle School for the first time as part of my Morehead State classes we spent the day at Boyd and the BETA club gave us a tour, and we talked with the Principal and several teachers in all facets of school operations. I have never been to Boyd County Middle, and I highly recommend that you visit it, I was so impressed that I set up my Student teaching assignments and observation to be done at that school. One of the classes we observed was a drama class, and in that class there were 4 special needs students whom blended right in and fully participated. The whole class was practicing a dance routine. At first I was fixated on the special needs students to see how they would perform, by the time the routine was complete I caught myself in amazed shock to how well they performed and how much they were accepted by their fellow students. I started to watch the teacher and I could see she was swimming in a sea of love of her students and job. It is experiences like this that makes me want to teach more and more each day. And on certain days when I think maybe I should just concentrate more on my present job and cut back on the amount of classes (7) and increase hours at work cause money is getting tight or we are having sitter troubles, or time to study takes away from my family time. I picture myself walking into the classroom and saying good morning class, and hearing "GOOD MORNING MR. MILLER" And this makes me want to take 10 classes a semester to finish quicker
