Hey All,
This is the end of the first nine weeks and we are busy working on final grades for the report cards. We had a busy week, with spirit week (which went better than I expected), homecoming, pep rally, parade, signing up for teacher work classes for our professional learning day, voting on Queen and King, and ETC...In many ways, this nine weeks has gone by fast. BUT, in many other ways it has dragged on forever! As I read every one's blog, I realize that this small world- truly is a small world. We all seem to be experiencing a lot of the same situations, students misbehavior, overcrowding, observations, report card, etc..and well honestly-- it takes a world to raise a child. I hope to encourage someone in some way today, keep on - keeping on. This job truly has it's rewards, sometimes we just have to wait on 'em. I'm trusting that the best is yet to come! -Riley
Thanks for being a bright spot on the blog this week. We all need encouraging words from time to time. Your positive attitude and work ethic will help keep us all going.
ReplyDeleteCool!,
ReplyDeleteThis past weekend at church my pastor stressed the fact that wherever we are wether it be home, school or vacation etc. we are in the middle of a mission field. If I go into everyday here at school with the attitude that trying to save these kids from failure is my mission then everyday will be worthwhile. We have to keep it all in perspective.
Thanks Riley!
Thank you for always having an inspiring word. You have a great outlook on life and that says a lot! I need to be more positive!!
ReplyDeleteWe are also at the end of our 9 weeks and report cards come out Monday. Thanks for the motivation and encouragement. This job does have its benefits. We can't get bogged down in the negative stuff or we will turn into those teachers that we disliked in school.
