Final Projects

It's that time of year again. Many people automatically assume that the busiest times for college students are during mid-term week and finals week. I beg to differ (well, in my case anyways). Perhaps it is because my major is more in the humanities and away from the sciences, but I rarely have tests, just papers, projects, lesson plans, etc. So, right now, this week and the next, are by far the busiest for me...in fact, the busiest I have pry ever been in my academic career.

I taught a lesson in my methods class yesterday; that was our final project. So, I am done with that class for the rest of the year basically, and it feels nice to be accomplishing these things. I just gave a presentation an hour ago in my Wild West course...which was one of our last assignments; so, I'm basically done in that class as well.

For my social studies methods class tomorrow, I have to create a 10-15 minute lecture over the subject matter I have been studying this whole semester. I do that again next Friday...and after that, I am done with that class for the most part. A week from today I present my research paper from last year at the history conference at USD. That night I present my research project from this year to my Recent America class. So, as you can see, after next week, I will be about done with my classes...and finals week won't be bad for me at all!!
