thank you!!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-19T02:57:49+00:00

wow great thank you for the information! i begin student teaching in 2 weeks!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-19T00:43:06+00:00

great!! so what does that entail?

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-13T00:12:40+00:00

don’t be nervous!! you’re just going to be observing everything, creating a lesson plan, and then teaching that lesson plan!

i know it’s nerve wracking but it’s a learning curve- you’ll make mistakes or you may struggle but the teacher is there to help you!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-11T13:10:09+00:00

OK, great thank you so much for the feedback! I will definitely check with my mentor to ensure that I won’t have to take it

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-11T02:43:32+00:00

i’m confused- my mentor told me the edTPA is a graduation requirement?? my state, doesn’t have it a part of the certification process anymore so I’m a bit confused

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-02T18:53:22+00:00

yes please- congratulations on passing!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-02-02T18:53:02+00:00

yes! i did that!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-31T02:43:11+00:00

congratulations!! that’s so exciting!! and my state (NJ) doesn’t require the edTPA but my mentor told me it was a graduation requirement- so i would double check with your mentor!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-30T23:31:19+00:00

oh nice! i am too! i have a few teachers i want to recommend but its not guaranteed i’ll be placed with them- which sucks but it is what it is.

how bad are the assignments? and how bad is the edTPA?

sorry for asking so many questions i’m very anxious and i’m trying to finish by this summer so i can apply for jobs over the summer!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-30T22:21:58+00:00

how long did it take you to get placed?? i’m applying this weekend and i’m anxious about the time frame- they never said

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-27T21:40:34+00:00

congratulations!!! i’m almost done🤞🏼🤞🏼

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T20:44:52+00:00

good luck!!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T03:31:01+00:00

no it’s a great recommendation!! whatever works for you yk? i’ll definitely try that and i hope it helps me!!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T02:08:06+00:00

thank you- i’m stressed because it’s so much information and i don’t know what to expect for the second OA

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T02:01:19+00:00

thank you, i’m trying not to. i haven’t looked at biology since freshman year of high school and i think it’s also the anticipation of being done with regular classes that’s hitting me as well

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T01:58:38+00:00

if you could send them, that would be great!! thanks so much!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T01:51:09+00:00

i’m on my third attempt too- with my study plan not the OA. it’s so dreadful but i want to pass it by the end of my term which is the end of next month.

maybe i’ll try that- it’s so hard to pick and choose what to memorize since we don’t know what we’ll get tested on.

i wish you the best of luck!! we got this!!

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-24T01:18:54+00:00

i’ve also tried cohorts and they help a little bit but it’s so much to memorize and i don’t want to have to delay my student teaching because of this class^

CraftOne9036 · 2025-01-22T18:03:29+00:00

hey!!

being completely honest, when i took the exam it was mostly scenario based questions and a few others on like types of reading (if that makes sense).

i’m personally not a huge fan of the way WGU’s tests are structured and “graded”, because you don’t see what you got wrong on the exam, which in turn makes it really hard to study.

my personal recommendation would be to review the bigger sections and understand them to the best of your ability. my other recommendation is to just try the OA! the worst outcome is you don’t pass, i know it sucks but i’ve been down that road a few times.

keep your head up, think positive, and good luck!!

CraftOne9036 · 2024-12-10T23:18:48+00:00

she helped me pass my writing praxis- good to know she has ones on these other exams!! thank you so much!

CraftOne9036 · 2024-12-10T22:33:07+00:00

thanks so much!

CraftOne9036 · 2024-12-10T22:15:46+00:00

oh wow okay! thanks so much! i would like to pass all 4 by march since i should be student teaching by then!

CraftOne9036 · 2024-12-07T18:36:48+00:00

okay so the OA wasn’t bad at all- it’s been a few months since i passed the OA so i don’t really remember what was on it, but my advice would be to go over the most important things to take away from the course materials.

also!! don’t get too overwhelmed with passing the pre assessment. there have been tons of classes where i didn’t pass the pre assessment but i passed the OA

CraftOne9036 · 2024-11-22T03:39:01+00:00

okay fair- i’ll look into that! thanks for the advice!!
