I'm really excited to teach the 6th graders. We've been planning our lesson, and I think we've got a good plan outlined. We're going to teach them about construction technologies, and how shapes help build strong structures. I think it's going to be really fun. I'm also excited to have this lesson to see how I like teaching young kids.

I'm excited to teach the 6th graders. I hope our group can come up with a good lesson plan for when we teach them. It should be fun!

I've enjoyed learning about the STLs as well. It's nice to have specific things to teach about. I'm glad I could get them memorized and prepare to teach them.

It will be good to see how I like teaching 6th graders. It will help me understand what type of teacher I want to be.

Toyota invests $1 Billion in VR in America. This is crazy! VR or AR seems like it's really going to take off soon.

I love this major! I love that I'm finally learning good, useful things for my future. Shumway's class, and the teaching things I've been learning and the work on the MakerSpace have been great.

I've been more and more convinced lately that I don't want to teach in a high school. The teaching that I've been doing in class and what I've observed has deterred me from wanting to be a full time teacher. I'd still like to try teaching maybe for a year or so to give it a chance.

It's been interesting to think about these things. I'm glad this class is giving me these chances!
