One of my dreams is to see teachers take their profession seriously enough to make that happen.<br /><br /><br />Dear John,<br /><br />I'm not as confused as I used to be--some of what we do in school is contrary to the best interests of children, the tax payers, and teachers. Yet we do it anyway.<br /><br />But you know this already....<br /><br /><br />Dear cope,<br /><br />Amen, amen, and amen. =)doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12901661320505882735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-24963359093096684862013-10-13T21:26:26.723-04:002013-10-13T21:26:26.723-04:00I be jumping though hoops too.

My students seem to be mostly receptive. That's good.<br /><br />Will I eventually cave and give it all up...absolutely. I am 63 and teaching is my second career so, yeah. Will somebody be there to carry on for me? Yes, I truly think so. <br /><br />Our job is so important that others realize this and will take up our mission. All we can do is be resolute, explain everything to our students and hope for the best.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-58823907552179322012013-10-13T19:40:19.772-04:002013-10-13T19:40:19.772-04:00We drove two and a half hours to go spend another ...We drove two and a half hours to go spend another three hours picking apples and finding the perfect pumpkins. I felt alive out there. I felt connected to my family and to the land and to everything that matters. <br /><br />It was Fall Break and we took our kids out of school for the experience. I'm not sure what they missed while they were picking out pumpkins. I'm not sure what they miss when they're at school. <br /><br />The whole thing is confusing. And that's where I am right now. Confused. <br /><br />I want my students to understand what matters, but I know they can't understand it without experiencing it.

I am (literally) spending an extra 5-10 hours a week trying to meet requirements that did not exist when I started, on top of the 60-70+ hours a week I gladly spend on teaching because it's my life.<br /><br />The extra hours of nonsense are cutting into my life. Something is going to give.<br /><br /><br />Dear Cristina,<br /><br />Thanks--I write for a very small audience. Your words matter.<br />doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12901661320505882735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-18030293868811150192013-10-12T17:35:37.680-04:002013-10-12T17:35:37.680-04:00Beautiful.
