Assigned Blog 2/19/09 Not my PoV
This is the face and personality that my students get on most days!!
They rarely see this! (well...)
I was really curious as to how my students see me as a teacher, so I asked. Here are two responses:
1. Nice, smart, teach great, not too hard, mean sumtime, n etc.
2. I would say that u r a nice, respectful and successful person. 2 me my personal opinion is that u really and truly care about us and our education.
Aww...
I try to make learning fun and exciting. I also try to let the kids know I care. On a recent trip to the district tournament in Tunica, I was told that I blended in with the students. This hater was from B (ahem..our rival school!) He informed me of how happy he was that his children went elsewhere.
Now the Delta in me wanted to get him straight, but not around the kids. I just told him that they still respect me regardless; they need to travel to other places outside of Holly Springs anyway. Also I see them more than parents do so if they want to be around me and act crazy at a b-ball game then that is fine by me. Oh, and no his kids were not there!!
Ms. K and I have taken various students to various places including Tunica, Ripley, and Short Stop!! lol Here are a few pics. Oh yea we took some to the Debate, too.
They caught me off guard at the game!
Our babies. For those of you teachers who claim not to have time, check this out. I teach. I tutor. I coach track. I am the prom coordinator. I don't even teach juniors and seniors. I am a dept. chair. AND YES I STILL HOLLA AT JCPENNEY'S three times a week. So make time, not excuses!!
We love the kids!!!
