Yeah, that's about what it will be like. It'll be about 16 weeks. I've actually had a lot of issues already. I should have met my cooperating teacher at the beginning of the break, but I have never gotten any replies to my emails. Also, I was told I may be changing schools by the person in charge of our placements, but she never got back to me about that. I'm kind of in limbo.
I only have one class (plus the seminar for student teaching), and it's an online, accelerated class. That'll give me at least half of the semester to only worry about my student teaching. Of course, I also have to put together my final portfolio to graduate, and that is due around week 7 of the semester. That's what is going to suck.
As a side note, I'm doing high school English. I wouldn't be very good with kindergartners, I don't think.
