1) I've got a lot of names I need to learn
2) There's lots of changes.
You know what? I don't care.
I'm super excited about this year.
I used Phineas and Ferb to teach 5 different types of questioning.
My students are awesome. My school is amazing. Yeppers work is good.
I told my students that I finished my 5th book this weekend. One kid raised his hand and asked, "if you get published and make a million dollars will you quit?"
I laughed.
I laughed loud.
Really loud.
My answer was, "no because I like things, like my roof, electricity and food."
At the end of the day, I love my job. I love my students (but not in a creepy way).
Happy school year everyone.
Congrats on a new school year! It's important to love what you do.
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous that you love your work! And that you're off to a good start, too. Congrats on finishing your 5th book!
ReplyDeleteI'm very envious about how much you love your job. You and I both know the thought process in regards to mine.
ReplyDeleteLike Alicia, I am envious of how much you love your job, too. Especially since I work in the same field and don't feel nearly as much joy :D And learning new names is such a pain...but luckily I'm pretty good at that :D LOL, I got asked that question from one of my students when I told them I write books--my answer was very similar to yours. AND, I'm using The Simpsons to teach Sociology this year, so that's cool!
ReplyDeleteBTW--your kid is freaking adorable :D
yay i loved Phineas and Ferb
