December 2

I've been so busy today. I had an inservice yesterday and it inspired me-- in more ways than one.


The biggest one is that Ive just been going through the motions of working. No amount of jokes and relative child theories will change the fact that I am probably just buying time until I can do something else. But I shouldn't just always go through the motions at work. Somewhere deep in my "cold" heart I do care about my children. I want them to succeed. I want to change the world and I truly believe it starts with small children. So, I took the whole day and made some things for my classroom. A lot of them were ideas I have (and had) about working with challenge kids. In college, I taught a severely dyslexic and diagnosed ADD to sit long enough to read!! It took me the while semester. But every day I was motivated more and more. I used techniques I theorized would work. Some did, some didn't. Now, if I could do this in college when all that was motivating me was... myself... Why can't I do this now with all the challenges I face?


I can. And I will!!!!
