I was reading through the posts when I got to Nikki's post about leaving MLK elementary. I too entered the program with the no intention of teaching in the K-12 classroom. My first week at SEEC Anne told me "Just wait- 3 weeks with these guys will have you singing another tune"
Well, I'm singing. There really isn't much better than spending an hour or two making art and reading with 4 year-olds. That being said, I don't have to spend all day everyday with them, so maybe I'm just missing out on the nitty-gritty aspects. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to open my eyes to the other possibilities that are out there. Having read through some of the experiences of my classmates, I'm excited to see what else is out there. For the groups headed to SEEC, rest assured that you will meet a great group of a kids and a staff that is doing something truly unique with their classroom.
