It is a thankless, underpaid job (even with the so-called summers off), and teachers deserve so much more recognition than they receive. I'm thankful for teacher's like you, girlfriend! Also thanks for linking up! :-)Sarah Alwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04592856192999277982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745494024756263152.post-31927102173310093482014-03-16T16:03:30.687-04:002014-03-16T16:03:30.687-04:00"but you have all summer off" cracks me ..."but you have all summer off" cracks me up every time. First of all, you are right, if we didn't have that break, we would all burn out after the first two years. People don't realize what a high-energy job teaching is. (Second of all, as a music teacher responsible for marching band, I get like three weeks of summer and then I'm back at it.) I'm lucky (knock on wood) that I've never had to deal much with #3 and 4, but I've heard horror stories from my mom.

Considering the amount of work, effort, and heart a teacher has to put into their job, they are WAY under paid!Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09725641604380183303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745494024756263152.post-65261353509708484532014-03-13T07:42:26.556-04:002014-03-13T07:42:26.556-04:00My current issue is kids who don't wear their ...My current issue is kids who don't wear their glasses. "My mom put them up so my brother couldn't play with them". Um, okay, why weren't they on your face to begin with? And now it's been 2 weeks and you can't see.<br />Or, parents who seem to think it's the school's fault that their child can't read. We teach reading,obviously, but it needs to be reinforced at home! (This is especially true with telling time and money…all those real world skills that you really learn at home.)Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12075708535155080258noreply@blogger.com
