This is my first post to my teaching blog. I have been a blogger for over three years, mainly blogging about adoption and then more so about my life in general.
So here it goes with my first teacher post. I don't feel that this will be so much a place for others to learn about what I do as a fourth grade teacher, but it will also be a place that I can advocate for teachers and what we do on a daily basis. It may contain some of my rants about the injustice I see from our local, and federal government government and their attitudes and actions for and against the teaching profession.
SO here is my first post as a teacher... I am back in the classroom after 10 years of being a math consultant and runnng small groups and doing lots of paperwork. I still don't feel like I have my teaching legs back. I depend on my collegues to get me through the week, with copies and plans. I don't have a clear sense of running my room yet. I finally know each of my student's names (yeah), and I am now learning a little more about each of them everyday.
I don't have my groove back. I haven't taken a lunch yet or sat in the faculty room. I haven't enjoyed my students yet. I hope this will come eventually. So if you are just popping by my blog then feel free to leave me a note.
