Procrastination

• Poor Time Management. Procrastination means not managing time wisely. You may be uncertain of your priorities, goals and objectives. You may also be overwhelmed with the task. As a result, you keep putting off your academic assignments for a later date, or spending a great deal of time with your friends and social activities, or worrying about your upcoming examination, class project and papers rather than completing them.
• I have very poor time management sills. I usually just don't want to take time out of my extra circular activities and hanging out with my friends before my academic classes. I would rather hang out with my friends then to stay home and do home work. I just cant get started once I get started I can finish anything. I usually wait till the last day to even try and get started.
• Discipline yourself to use time wisely: Set priorities.
• I need to discipline myself more. I need to stay home at least two times a week, take time out of hanging out with my friends and extra circular activities.

My first week as a teacher

My site school is Spicer Elementary. My mentor teacher is Mrs.Linda Ristow of 2nd grade and I am there for daily 5. Daily 5 is when they have 15 minutes to read, write and then whatever other choice they would like to do involving technology. I felt very welcomed at my site school. My mentor teacher Mrs. Ristow was very welcoming and let me introduce my self and let me take charge in the class room. I am looking forward to getting to know my kids and being in the class room. I love going on field trips with them and being able to be in charge.
