My thesis, that is. As of 5:00 last night, my thesis was approved by my committee. 1.5 years, countless hours, thousands of dollars, and many keystrokes have gone in to it, and it is finally done. Oh, and lets not forget the trees killed in the process of printing various pages of notes and drafts of this 64 page monster. If anyone is interested in teaching social studies vocabulary to high school students with LD, consider reading "The Key to Social Studies Vocabulary: Using the Keyword Method to teach High School Students with LD" by Karsten K Powell.
Here is the aftermath of creating a thesis: many books, about 50 articles, notes taken during hours of meetings and reading. (The thesis is in the middle of the mess)
And what do I look like after this?
What a surreal feeling.
Way to go!!!!! Trust me, I know what it's like to be done with that, and it's a great feeling!
