One of my practicum placements was in a Durham high school. My teachable subjects are Physical Education and General Science, so I mainly contributed to Grade 10 science classes. My teaching responsibilities were primarily with the Environmental Science class, which I truly enjoyed. For my last placement, I am looking forward to seeing what is in store; I will likely be placed in either a Grade 7 or 8 classroom, as I believe my true passion lies with intermediate students.
