PLT

PLT test scores are in Good Luck to Everyone:)

Time has flown and so much has gone on!!!

There has been so much that has gone on lately in the block at SUU. We have ventured to Mesquite for a week. We all had a great time and learned a lot. It was fun to play, gamble, eat, bowl and get a way.
We have also had Zinsi come with his drums and teach us how to use drums in the classroom. He was so fun, we loved the drums and his great storytelling.
We have finished up our second placement in practicum which has been either at South Elementary or Cedar Middle School. It has been a great experience.

This last week we have been real busy too. We had mock on the block interviews, where we got at taste of what interviewing for a job as a teacher would be like. We turned in our Teacher Work Samples, our practicum reports, and our Math Resource Books. We also had our last real normal classes. We will miss our great instructors. They have taught us so much.

Social Studies- Mark Marriott
Science- Dr. Genell Harris
Language Arts- Linda Marriott
Mathematics- Peggy Wittwer
Management- Peggy Wittwer
Practicum- Peggy Wittwer

Today, most of us took the PLT test. It was long and intense but just one more hole to jump through. I don't think we can all believe that it is really almost over. We only have a few finals on Tuesday this week and Science tubs at South Elementary on Wednesday and we are really DONE. It will be so exciting but also very sad, because we have become great friends and experienced so much. I hope we can all use this blog and email to keep in touch and not lose touch. Yeah!! we are almost there!!!

SUU ROTC 5 K Fun Run

There is a SUU ROTC 5K Fun Run on April 18th, which is next Saturday at SUU. It is a lot of fun. I have told some people in the block about this Run and told them that I would post a link for anyone that is interested to sign up for it. This run is for the public and helps the ROTC raise money for their program.

You get a free tshirt, snacks after the race and they also have a drawing for anyone that entered and give out free prizes afterwards even if you haven't won any part of the race. They give out free pizzas, dry cleaning, free dinners, tshirts and much more. Almost everyone gets a free giveaway after the race if they stay.

Don't feel bad if you aren't a runner, there are many that come and just support ROTC and do the walk. It is fun and free stuff.

For students it is cheaper and also cheaper if you register ahead of time so check this link out if you are interested. Go here!!!!!

Come have a fun morning and get exercise too!!!
