Blog #1

Hey everyone! For those of you who do not know me my name is Amanda and I am a Senior at SPC. I am a 24 year old mother of one, and enjoy every minute of motherhood as well as attending SPC. Yes, I am a non traditional student but that does not bother me. I was almost dont with my degree before I had my son, but he encountered serious health problems due to premature birth, so he came first. He is the reason I came back to school and I love every minute of attending SPC. I have met great people, and would not trade it for the world! Thank you to everyone who has been a part of my experience at SPC! You are all truly amazing!
Now, That video about Assessment Going Wrong!! That Is crazy. Us teachers need to put an end to scaring children about testing. This is a reality that I think new teachers should conquer together. Children of all ages should enjoy learning and not be afraid of tests. It is not fair to them. There should be other ways to make testing pleasing and interesting. More positivity and less negativity please!
