Get my EdD
I have always wanted to be a Doctor. I don't care how silly it sounds. In fact, at 3 years old, I asked my Pediatrician what school she went to... When she replied with, "Yale", I asked if it was a good school and explained that I would only go the best school when I became a doctor. When I realized that my true calling was teaching and not pediatrics, I never gave up the dream of being a doctor. I hope to dive deeper into studies in the next few years and start the process.
Becomes an administrator
I would love to be a Principal. Deep down I know it's in my future. I absolutely love being in the classroom, and I, in no way, want to take this on in the near future as I firmly believe that the best administrators are rooted in the classroom... but I would love to have the opportunity to work with teachers in a different way, view school from a different angle. This is absolutely a long-term goal for me.
Present in Vegas
Someday, I hope to share my experiences in the classroom with teachers all over. I often work with colleagues to develop arts integration lessons/units and help with management. First, I need to actually make it to Vegas, but someday, it is my dream to present at I Teach K! :)
Now, it's your turn! Link up below! I cannot wait to read your bucket lists!
It always amuses me that teachers come from two camps: they want to be an administrator or they avoid it like the plague. We definitely need strong educators to step into administrative shoes though!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right! And honestly, I used to say that I wanted absolutely nothing to do with administration, but over the past year, I've sort of landed in a number of leadership roles and it has been a breath of fresh air. My heart is in the classroom and I plan to teach for AT LEAST another 5-10 years, but somewhere out there on the horizon, I see an administrator position.
DeleteI'd love to present too! But I don't know if I'd ever want to be an administrator.
ReplyDeleteEeeekkk! Principal...yeah, I'm in the other camp! But we need strong leaders and I know you'd be great! Go get 'em, Doc!
