What I expect from TE 402

It is an exciting time in the lives of just about every TE 402 student (as lame and cliche as that sounds). We are about six months away from being interns and in the classroom four days a week. TE 301 taught us about literacy development, 401 taught us about ways to implement science and social studies in the classroom, and I now look forward to learning about the best ways to teach language arts and math in te 402.
I really have high hopes for myself as well as for the class in 402. I hope to gain as much knowledge and insight as possible while I am in and out of class. I know that these classes are going to be great tools in preparing us for our internship year, as well as for our future profession. I hope that in 402 we learn how many methods of how it is possible to teach students to read and write, as well as different methods to do math work.
I know that assignments for TE classes can be demanding, but I feel that we gain a lot from doing them. I am not a big fan of the 15-20 page lesson plans that I had to write for TE 401, I would much rather do more lesson plans that have smaller write-ups, but any way that we go about doing this I know it will help prepare us for the future.
I look forward to my final semester as a college undergraduate student to be fun and informative!
