The first half of the school year is coming to an end!

Wow!  The time has passed so quickly.  It seems as though it was yesterday when I can into my class for the first time.  I was extremely nervous.  I even thought how in the world will I ever learn these kids' names.  Today I feel more confident and less nervous.  However I feel that my kids aren't getting the best learning experience because it is my first year.  I've had walk throughs and observations, and nothing negative has been mentioned about my teaching.  I just want my students to understand the concepts that they need to learn.  I've been told I'm doing well, but I guess that I'm my worst critic.  Hopefully I can feel more self-assured as I gain experience.
