Semester Ending
I just wanted to take this time as we wrap up the end of the semester to thank Mrs. White for the experience I have had in this class. I began the semester thinking this class would be another SED class going more in depth in material I have already learned. I finished it learning more about effects I will make on my future students and how much my teaching will impact the rest of their lives. I appreciate the personal experiences you told in class and how you related the material to real situations. You helped me develop a better understanding of how important communication is in special education. And even though I thought it impossible, you made me feel this field is even more perfect for me. I got the tools and strategies I will need to become an "exceptional educator" from this class, which is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you and I wish everyone has a wonderful Christmas and good luck next semester, as we start all over.

I think Mrs. White has done a great job teaching this class. Some of the material is hard to understand, but she puts it in easier terms. I enjoyed the class and feel I have learned new and fun way to enjoy communication.

I really like the way that the material was presented. I am so sick of sitting in class and listening to teachers lecture for an hour or more while the student nod off to sleep or doodle in their notebooks.
Ms. White let us break up into groups, do hands on activities, and she made us really think about the content and the importance of it.
In this class, I have had the chance to see the way that a classroom should be set up and the way that material should be presented. Because of this, in my class I will do my best to involve my students and to stimulate them in a way that makes them enthusiastic about learning.
Thank you! I love to talk - - but hate to lecture. It is one of the most INEFFECTIVE ways to have students LEARN information. We learn by DOING. I hope to have even more interactive group work next semester since I will have SMALLER classes. I am TOO excited.
