Introduction...Finally!

Greetings! My name is Joe Adamo and welcome to our “Read. Explore. Discover” Blog. This being my first blogging experience, i have struggled to access the webpage, hence the lateness of this introduction (Rookie mistake I know!). However, I am here now and excited to join Joel, Julia and Kris in identifying the interesting books we discover each week! Once again I would also like to thank Julia for creating the blog, its design is fantastic! Anyhow now the formalities are complete, here’s a little bit about myself...

I am currently a second year Primary and Middle School Education student, which will someday allow me to fulfil my ambition of being a Teacher. However, my ambitions towards Teaching haven’t always been present. See after i graduated from high school, i went through the typical ‘where to now phase’. This led me to choose the undergraduate course of Human Movement and Health Science, in which I disliked. The reasoning for my choice was based upon my love for sport, as Human Movement incorporates sport science and physical practice. Furthermore, it was only until I selected an education based elective in “Teaching Motor Skills”, that I knew teaching was just the thing for me! Whether it is the smile of the students, the paper plane thrown across the class or the satisfaction you receive after successfully assisting students in learning a new concept, teaching in my eyes is inspiring!

I look forward to sharing my thoughts with you as my discovery progresses!

Joe
