I am currently completing my student teaching internship in an Algebra 2 w/Trig class. After completing this internship (2 months and counting) I will graduate from The University of South Alabama with a Secondary Education/Mathematics degree. I just decided to start blogging throughout my internship about the things that I am learning as well as teaching. I am passionate about students, teaching, math, and technology. I am a firm believer in technology integration in the curriculum.
I would love to know your feelings on homeschool. Do you feel like you missed out on the "normal" events of childhood by not attending public school? Was it a rough transition from homeschool to college?
Hi Martha, No I don't feel like I missed out an any "normal" events. Actually I stayed very involved. I played city league sports, I was actively involved with 4h(while in lower grades), I was involved with the youth group in church, I volunteered on politcal campaigns in highschool, and many more things. As far as the transition from homeschool to college, that was fairly easy. I think I already had a good grasp of time management and studying on my own. Honestly I don't feel any different than I think I would have if I had went to public school, but feel free to ask any questions that you like! I definitely don't think homeschooling is for everyone but it worked pretty well for me.

Wonderful. You mother always "raised the bar." You will learn more about what that means when you watch Randy Pausch's Last Lecture.
