I never miss a beat
I'm lightnin' on my feet
And that's what they don't see, mm-mm
That's what they don't see, mm-mm.
Becomes...

It's alright
You were dancing through the lightning strikes

With all the new things, its natural to have some anxiety. Know that you can connect and be a successful student. It takes a small step to start the journey - so try it. #SundaySalutation #TryIt #YouGotThis #UWSP #YouMatter #PointCares

I love seeing our #UWSP FCS pre-service teachers in action! Middle school/junior high observations are some of my favorite. I started my teaching career as a middle school teacher and I still love the energy and enthusiasm of this age! #SayYestoFCS
