Working on lesson plans tonight. Not a lot of time to write. But here goes...
Today was a hard day all around. It seemed that a lot of teachers were having difficulties with children beyond a normal day. Obviously it's not things that I can discuss here (confidentiality and all) but let's just say it was hard.
I can say, though, that it is so easy to forget everything teachers go through. It is NOT just teaching. You don't clock in, do your lesson plans, and clock out. You are constantly thinking about the children, how to help them, what you can do for them, how you can make their learning more meaningful...if they're eating, if they're sleeping, if they're safe...
A lot to think about tonight. And I'm not even the teacher.
