9 years in......
So I've had a number of blogs over the years, some are still active, some are long dead, but I've never thought to keep a blog about teaching. It seems that has escaped me even though I read teacher blogs like crazy. Hmmm...weird... anyway, I've had a bit of an epiphany these last couple of months (yes, I said months) and have decided to give this a try. I think it might be good to document some of this stuff. So let's begin.... I want to include a little background, I'll fill in details in future posts, but for now here are the bare facts. I decided at 48 that I wanted to be a teacher. Actually, we were considering moving from Hawaii to the mainland and I thought a teaching job would be more portable plus I had wanted to teach for a few years. So I went into a masters program. I was lucky enough to get hired for my student teaching at a private school. That in and of itself is whole other story, but I was glad to get hired and have a job. I worked there for 5 year...
