I’m Kaitlin Smith. I live in Sweetwater with my husband, Russ. We will both be very glad when I finally graduate and get a “real” job! We have a dog named Bonnie who runs the house. I love anything outdoors, especially fishing and hunting. I'm looking forward to great dove and alligator seasons again this year! I spent four years at Jones County Junior College majoring in nursing and later changed to elementary education. I graduated with an Associate’s degree and then came to USM to pursue my B.S. degree in elementary education. I’ve always loved working with children. I currently substitute teach for local schools, teach a first through third grade Sunday school class, and occasionally babysit. Children are my favorite people to be around, especially third graders.
There were a few things in the syllabus that stood out to me. One is that no late work is accepted. The next is the blog that we are required to post every week and the three major projects required for the course. I like and appreciate the detail and rubrics given for the assignments. I think that the course is going to be interesting and rich in literacy content. I am excited about the group work in the Elizabethtown project; it seems like it will be beneficial to our learning. I’m a little hesitant about the mulitgenre project because I’m not exactly sure how to approach the assignment. As the semester progresses, I will probably have a few questions about our future assignments.
