It's weird to say, but I'm officially finished with my bachelor's degree! I can't believe I'm actually done and can apply to be a teacher in my own classroom! My student teaching experience was awesome! I loved those 6th graders so much and still do! I miss them like crazy, but hopefully I can get my own classroom this next school year and have new kids to miss like crazy. :) Here are a few pics:

| This is me with all the amazing gifts from my students. My favorite was the binder full of their pictures with sweet notes from them all. |
My last day of class was so much fun! The whole class totally tricked me! I was convinced that they kids were going to have a pop quiz in science during the last hour of class, so I kept hinting to them that they should study. Little did I know that there was no pop quiz! My teacher told the kids that when she lifted up the over head screen, the quiz would be on the board. When she did that, instead it said, "We will miss you!" and they all turned to me and said "SURPRISE!!!" It was so shocked I started to cry! Then they had me turn around, and each kid whispered something they remember with me, or liked about me, and I had to guess who it was! I was pretty good, almost guessing everyone, and they were way impressed. Then we ate treats and I gave them all the personalized notes I wrote them. I became a celebrity as they formed a line asking for my autograph. We then finished with another game and a class picture. I loved it all! The other best part was getting hugs from EVERY single student, even some of the boys my teacher and I thought would choose a handshake, gave me a hug. And then as soon as the bell rang some of the girls busted out their phones and got pictures with me. I can't wait to go visit them again sometime!
