Reflection

Overall, I thought that this course was benefitical.  I am glad I got to do another reseach paper because it was been a few years since I have had to do and and it was good to brush up on my skills.  I believe this class was a low stress class and the projects were easy to accumulate a lot of points on.  Hopefully I got an A :) ;)

Have a Merry Christmas and a sucessful new year Enjoy you're break..it is definately much needed!

How I Draft

When I start to draft the first thing I do is turn on my itunes and organize my notecards.  After my notecards are in order I start to type.

Progress

I am very excited about my paper and find my topic of Preschool very interesting. I am find a lot of facts that I was very unaware of and also finding out how important early education really is.  I am making good progress.

Guest Speaker

I thought the speaker was knowledgeable in his subject area and an entertaining to listen to and watch.  He kept my attention for the majority of the time because of his enthusiastic voice and he also moved around a lot.  His visuals also kept my attention
