I AM POEM

I Am

I am an African American Male, with a mentality to never fail

I wonder if my friends really know the real me

I hear the doubters saying I can’t make it

I pretend like I’m upset but I know it won’t kill me

I see the success awards and plaques in my future

I want the young African males to know they can do it

I am going to succeed in my lifetime

I feel sometimes that I should just stop trying

I touch the keys on my laptop during late night assignments

I worry when I wake up the next morning and can’t find them

I cry when I think of failing

I am not worried much because I am always excelling

I understand the path I took will be prevailing

Reflection Of My School

My pre professional course is taken at Kay Road Elementary School. I'm in the gym or the track or the playground majority of the time. My cooperating teachers are Coach Smith and Coach Barker, although they teach at Kay Road they coach for middle and high schools. I enjoy going to the elementary school every tuesday and thursday seeing the young students, some of them are very excited to come to P.E. I have enjoyed this semester and will continue to enjoy the many oppurtunities I have in the future student teaching.
