Blog 4:Presentation Reflection

1 .In my first interview I interviewed a kindergarten teacher named Ms.Watschy and well she was that brought up the topic of Autism and how it has been increasing in kids. After that I decided to do that as my 5 min presentation.

2. The statistics of Autistic kids stood out to me, trough just a few years the numbers have increased greatly but not everyone is aware of Autism. And it stood out to me because not I knew that many kids were Autistic. It actually inspired me to start some awareness during its month.

3. The most challenging was to meet the time requirement because I wanted to give enough information to the audience but it was hard trying to make it in 5minutes.

Blog 1: Senior Project Topic

   My Senior Topic is education. at the current moment it is not specific but it relates to teaching ages K-12. I choose it because I have always enjoyed kids around me and I have actually have had the chance to teach a class of children from 4-6 years old and ever since I knew that was a future career for me. I guess I can say I have that gift with and it's not an easy job having to control and teach strangers kids but I enjoy every minute of it.

  I hope to accomplish more knowledge about kids and how they develop so I can use these methods as a real teacher. I want to also learn the psychology of these young minds so I can have good ways to control bad behavior situations or anything like it.
