JA!

I had never been involved with Junior Achievement before until Nov. 19. and it was one of the most amazing expierience i ever had. Everyone was in a group of two and we each had a class to teach. My partner and I had a kindergarten class. The curriculum that they had us teach the students was amazing. It tought the students how to identify money and fairness and overall economics. My class was very good and they were great listeners. I think the Junior Achievement project that we had was amazing. It tought me a lot about what to expect when becoming a teacher. I learned that teachers have a lot of patience and that they are a big impact on the students as well. I knew that teachers were a role model and that it was hard work to take care of a classroom but i never knew how complicated it really was. When i first got into the classroom ill admit i was extremly nervous but then i got used to it because the students were so friendly and nice and also because they listened.
