For the first time in 28 years, I won’t be going “back to school” in the fall. I need to take some time off to recover from an annoying injury, and I plan to return in the spring session.
To say I am disappointed is very true. This is the first time in my working life–going back to 1969!–I had to say, I cannot do this right now. Not there anyway, with the mile long parking lots and the super long walks to the classes. Not yet.
I love teaching, and I will miss it a lot this fall term.
So… if you hear my brains rattling or if you hear some whimpering on my part, give me a nudge and remind me there might be life outside of teaching.
Or just tell me to get to work getting better.
And off to meet the students. I love teaching. Always an exciting day! I teach developmental English at the community college, and I love it. I believe strongly in the mission of our community colleges, and view them as great institutions.
Wishing all educators returning to school this week all the best! 👍🍀❤️.
As a reading specialist, teacher, and avid reader myself, I am interested in reading research. This study shows that students often learn better when they read print v. screen reading materials :
