I hope it went well! I kow many education majors from my first school who had to change majors 'cause they couldn't pass the Praxis.

So...should the topic of DZ/Turtle time be brought up Convention this year? It seems like a nation-wide problem

LOL - thanks *HUG*

I think I did alright - I left with my head held high (every other time I have taken it I have immediately known how I did by the way I felt. I've been accurate thus far.)

I have to wait to find out until approx. the 20th. I hope I passed - I need to become a REAL certified teacher.

Right now, I just play one on TV.

I'm slightly confused....you're allowed to teach based on the fact the school is assuming you're going to pass the Praxis? Kinda like graduating from law school and going to work at a firm before passing the bar?

Kind of, yes.

I have a provisional contract and license to teach. It is only good for 1 year. SO I need to pass the Praxis (Maryland has diff. requirements than New Hampshire, which is why I'm taking the Praxis 2, here, now.) and apply (and be granted) a teaching license by June.

Sorry to double post - but I wanted to share a fabulous photo of my hubby-to-be and I from his work Holiday party. He is absolutely adorable in his tux...

Ah, Lucky. I was hoping for a snow day, but alas. We did get a lot of rain and I'm kinda surprised it didn't freeze.

Your photo looks great, BTW!

That's great news!

My break is boring. I'm working. I'm sitting around the house. That's about it. I can't wait to go back to school.

Thanks Katie, by the way. I'm sorry you're so bored. I always hated Winter Breaks that I was home. I get bored easily. *hugs*

CONGRATS! Hope everyone's holidays are going well...personally, I'm soooooooooooooooo glad to not be working retail this year. You have no idea. I like being a student. Being a teacher will be OK, too, because you get breaks along with the students. I'm all about holiday breaks.

I think I'm going to a bar tomorrow night with my friends for New Year's...same place we went last year!
