Project #2 Wordle

my name is vicki nelson and I am in class EDM310.

Dr. Randy Pausch’s video

          After watching Dr. Randy Pausch's video I learned that you are going to need time management threw out your life. I have always just put things of and figured that I can do it later. But since Wednesday nights class I have figured out that in order for me to be able to pass Dr. Strange's class I am going to have to be more prompt with my school work and stay on top of things. I also like that he mentioned that it's okay to fail, and with every mess up there is a learning experience. I must admit I have have tried the to-do list and just fail and go on with something else but what I have realized that with this class I am going to have to start a to-do list and stick with it.  So I am going to have to check that to-do list every day and not fall behind in this class so that I can stay with the program. Because if I want my classroom to be prompt then I am going to have to be also. I had never heard of Randy Pausch before but I enjoyed his video and plan to watch some more of his talks.  I definitely have a problem with time management and can use all the help I can get!

 

Blog Assignment #1

      My name is Vicki Nelson and I live in Foley. I am married to a wonderful man hum I have known since I was thirteen that supports me and every way he knows how. We have been married for 16 years and we have three beautiful boys. My oldest boy is Aaron that is 15 and is in the 10th grade he loves to hunt, fish and work on his truck that he will soon be driving. My middle child is Brandon that is 11 and is in the 6th grade and loves to sing any song you would like for him to sing. He loves to be in drama classes and just recently joined the band and is learning to play the trumpet. Then my baby boy is Cody this is 7 1/2 months old he loves to crawl around and love on everyone. He is the love of my life. And was born be live it or not on New Years Day.!!!! :)
       I have always wonted to be a teacher but after I graduated school I stayed home with my two oldest boys instead of going back to school. Just 7 years ago I finally decide to go back and get my degree in teaching. I love spending time with children and teaching them. I currently work at Foley Middle School as a para-professional until I receive my degree. However I work with the multi-handicap children and that is where my heart lays. I love working with them cause I believe that no matter how handicap you are I think that you always have to potential to learn something.
