Last Weeks of School

It is crazy how quickly the semester has gone by. Blake is finishing up his last weeks of school and i am finished and just waiting for May 2nd to come when we can be declared collage graduates. This semester Blake has been taking a communication class and an economics class both of which he finds a little boring but he is willing to do the work. I have been student teaching out at Parowan which is about half an hour north of here. I really enjoyed the students and miss them all ready. Now that i am finished there i have finished up my Teacher Work Sample or TWS and my E portfolio what a stress relieve to have these finished. To pass my time now I do a little cross stich and a substitute teach once and a while. i am also joining my former students on their trip to provo to state solo and ensemble festival which takes place on the 24th and 25th of this month. Cary(the teacher) and I will both be driving vans up with approx. 9 students. we will get their on the 24th treat them to some activites for their hard work and then do their competition and drive back home on the 25th.
On the 18th of these month is SUU's Day of Percussion. it is a day packed with Percussion classes and master classes along with performances and just a whole lot of fun i missed last years Percussion day Because we were getting married but look forward to attending this years.
