Learning Curve
This week has been another incredible week. I can't get over how fast it goes by!!! before I know it it's friday!!! TGIF !!! I just love Fridays. Our school had it's first pep rally and first home football game. One of my students asked if I could wear his football jersey on Friday as well as at the football game. I did. Call me crazy, but even through the hardships of having to learn so much, call parents, complete paperwork, get little rest, I am still enjoying the students. I have come to realize the kids that could care less are a small fraction compared to those who actually want to do well. They are just walking hormones with drama at times. This whole year is just a huge exhausting learning curve !!
I think that is great for you and your student. It is the relationships that are really important. As much as I hate the drama at school with my students. I love my students. I enjoy them because I can see that they are just kids that want to be adults. they are full of emotions and they (like I when I was their age) don't know what to do with all of that. I got a hug from several of my students on Friday as they left for the day. Stacy
