My First Year Teaching

Well, my first year of teaching is now behind me! And it is a very bittersweet feeling. I have learned and grown so much over this past year. I absolutely loved my students, and I'm pretty sure I learned more from them this year than they did from me :) While spending my last few days with them I started thinking about having a new group of kids next year, and it's hard to believe I'm not going to be with these kids again! I think it's probably like when you're a mom, and you can't imagine loving another kid...until you have another one. But, on the flipside, I'm really lucky that I get a fresh start every year with a new group of kids. I'm really excited for next year...to make changes for the better and to continue to make strides in my profession. I have the best job in the world!
