Westboro Elementary - Sherwood Park
I was very fortunate to be placed in such an amazing classroom for my final practicum. I had support from a teacher mentor who's passion for education was renowned and a principal that was very well rounded with experience to help guide me through my last 27 week practicum. On top of my mentors at Westboro, every single one of the staff were welcoming and happy to help me wherever possible.
I started teaching Grade 2 in Sherwood Park in September and immediately assumed 50% of a teachers role. I took on Math, Science, Gym and Health. As with every classroom, this one came with many different abilities and learning levels. At first I really struggled with parent involvement and found it very hard to complete a research study without parents being involved. Once the parents understood my role in their child's education, this interaction more comfortable.
I had an amazing 27 weeks at Westboro School and I will miss the students and staff very much.
