    Re: worrying about scores
    Posted by KM on 7/07/08

    I think you hit the nail on the head. Focus on how the process will
    make you grow as a teacher. Don't get anxious. The NB journey is
    time consuming but totally do-able. There will be days when you will
    feel overwhelmed but you are starting early and should be fine.
    Organization is key. Get your hands on as much info. as you can. I
    spent hours on the internet researching my subject area. There is a
    wealth of information available. I worked at least an hour every day
    but found I was more productive when I had larger blocks of time to
    dedicate to writing. If you haven't already downloaded the questions
    into a word document I would highly recommend doing that. Leave them
    in the document (highlighted or in a different color font) until
    you've had people proof your entry. Make sure you answer each part
    of every question. Sometimes the questions seem redundant but if you
    read them carefully you will find they are not. I highly recommend
    joinging a yahoo group in your content area. Best of luck!
