Teaching and Learning: Reflections from Ms. S

Whether it was my misconceptions of kids, teaching, me, or all three, I'm not sure, but a Teacher was the last thing I thought I'd be. I knew I wanted to be more involved in my community, but was unable to find a job. Desperate, I decided to work as a Substitute, but then my eyes saw: BILINGUAL SPECIALIST; Love kids and their culture, help with English. Not only has teaching been a blast as I have been able to share life with 40 K-8th graders, but I am a better person because of THEM!

High School

Me: Hey, are you guys looking forward to High School?
Student 1: I don't know.
Student 2 (The Academic): Well, the only thing I am excited about is taking extra (elective) classes.
Student 3 (The Player): The only thing I'm excited about is that there will be more girls. OLDER GIRLS.
