Jess' Dilemma #2

      Hey. So my second dilemma that I am recently facing is that I am unsure about the subject I am teaching. I love Language Arts, but unfortunately 6th grade Language Arts is mostly Grammar. I am finding myself unsure of the material. There have been several times where I have to ask my mentor teacher to check my answer keys or to correct me while I'm teaching if I say something wrong. Because of this insecurity, I feel as if I am unfit to teach this topic or this grade. I know for sure I want to teach 8th grade Language Arts because the amount of Grammar is less during that year. What about 7th grade though? Does anyone know how much Grammar is meant to be taught? As the semester goes by, I am starting to realize which grades and which subjects I want to teach more. Is anyone else figuring this out as well?
