Week 1: My First Blog!

My first semester of education has come and gone and now I am starting off the second semester.  My first semester of education went very well.  I did not mind being in the classroom but once I was out student teaching I did not want to come back to the classroom.  I quickly noticed that education is a lot of work.  Some of the work is not hard but it is time consuming and gets me prepared for when I get my degree and have a classroom of my own.

Let me tell you a little about myself.  My name is Lucas Johnson and I enjoy sports, traveling and spending time with friends and family.  I played many different kinds of sports over my lifespan. I've played hockey, basketball, volleyball, golf, curling, baseball and even squash.  I could list more but I think you get it.  I currently work at the YMCA with the before and after school program and I really enjoy it.  I have by BPES from Brandon University and hopefully by next year my degree in Education.

In my first week of classes coming back from the break it took me a couple days to wake up and get going again.  I enjoy half my classes but cannot wait to get back out to the field again.  I currently take Pro Teacher, ICT, ELA Across the Curriculum, and a Child Development class.  It is nice to be back and see my fellow classmates again!

I have never blogged before in my life so this will take some getting used to.  I was not quite sure how to start blogging but with a little help from my roommate here I am.  I feel I am average when it comes to technology and with taking ICT I am hoping my skills grow and I can be a very good teacher with technology in the future.  I cannot wait to see learn and I am very excited about this class and here is a video I hope will get people pumped and excited for this class and for blogging!
