The Art League at Alexandria was a good choice I think for me to attend, very different from anywhere else I had been to just because of the age difference, this being an adult education program for people who were mostly taking classes for fun and leisure. 

Looking at all these different schools, classroom environments, and classroom populations, and student motivation for taking the class,  it made me realize about all the many MANY things that go into planning for teaching an art class. So many things effect it that I never really thought about. 

It was enjoyable, rewarding, and insightful experience. I am eager to see what happens this summer (as I am looking for a summer internship to do outside of school, not for credit, maybe if I am lucky for pay? lol) and with my student teaching next year. Through the last 9 months since entering the program the field experience class has thusfar had the most impact on turning around my thinking and outlook on this program and got me thinking more positively about my future after the program and more hopeful about the kinds of things I will be able to do.
