Reflection 1

Erin,

I really enjoyed reading your first reflection about your experiences in Auburn Middle School. I have an appreciation for that school because I have driven past the row of schools you mention in your paper and I had to smile every time I drove through there because it just seemed somewhat picturesque. Even though the layout of my town from back home is much different than the town in Riner, I feel that I grew up in a similar type of community. My Dad graduated from the same high school I graduated from, went to Virginia Tech, and then moved back to Palmerton to start his career. I thought it was funny that one of the teachers went to school in the same three schools that were there and ended up going back and teaching at Auburn as well. Do you feel that growing up in a more diverse area helps you feel more comfortable teaching in all kinds of environments?
