1 Day Until Conference!


So a little more background on my last post. I am currently taking an Exploration of Teaching class for the English Teaching major. It's mostly observing a teacher at the junior high/high school and teaching a little on the side. I had the opportunity to spend the three weeks prior with a junior high teacher at Pleasant Grove Jr. High and she was simply awesome to work with. I'm currently working with a Senior AP English teacher at Lone Peak and have spent the last several days trying to put together a lesson plan for when I teach in the coming week(s). It began as a lesson on Hamlet and has morphed into a lesson about improving thesis statements, so we'll see how it actually turns out when I teach it.
Also, Becca is a European Studies major and has a great deal of experience with German (I daresay fluent) and Swedish, hence paying a visit to the German Club. The next two weeks will be celebrating German related things on campus and she is in charge of the game night during the second week. I'll be intrigued to see how everything turns out :).
It was stunning to see the temple like it is in the picture above this evening. Tonight Becca and I decided to go and do baptisms for the dead at the Provo temple to help clear our minds. As I mentioned earlier, Becca will be taking the LSAT tomorrow, so getting to be in the temple helped relieve some stress. It was awesome getting to be there. I actually performed baptisms and confirmations rather than being the proxy, but it was very enjoyable nonetheless. Becca had to help me get around because I've never done baptisms there. I hope to have another opportunity in the future to attend and do baptisms with her.
I'm so excited to watch Conference tomorrow!!! I'm going to bed soon so hopefully I can avoid being a zombie during the day :). Hope you all enjoy your weekend!!
