Well, this is the first post on my new blog. I have just started my second year as the 8th and 9th grade counselor at my hometown school, Prairie Grove. I created this blog to share some of the things I do for students. Like most educators I steal ideas from others. I hate to say it, but I guess I have very few original thoughts....lol! We are in to the third week of school and I am starting to feel settled, more so than last year, so this is as good of a time as any to start blogging.
I am almost done finishing up my school counselor certification. It is a blessing to be able to work in this position while I complete the requirements. I have 6 hours of internship and one more class this summer to take and I will be finished...well, I have to take the Praxis too, but I sometimes forget about that. My next challenge will be National Boards!
I am inspired by so many counselors out there with blogs. I am thankful there are people who are willing share what they are doing for students. There does not seem to be as many secondary counselors out there on Pinterest/Blogger/Facebook, etc. Every now and then I run across a great secondary counselor that shares ideas. I do get a lot from elementary counselors though. I will be sharing some of the things I have adapted for my 8th and 9th grade students.
Hopefully I will make the time to actually update this blog! :) Wish me luck! Thanks for reading!
