Today was one of the longest, hardest, funniest and most rewarding days. I can't even start to tell you all the feelings I had. But it was a crazy day. Started off with a meeting with some parents, and it was a very frustrating meeting with a delusional dad. I came back to the class to deal with peer tutors who were being lazy and annoying. Then I taught and my knee was killing me. During the lesson I just couldn't help but have a huge smile on. My students say the funniest things and it is so fun to see their little success. One student told me, "Ms. Scott, you are a nice teacher." I needed that. I'm glad the students like me.
Near the end of the day, I had some students who were being so frustrating. And I just was at the end of my rope. But then one of the students said, "Teachers need a break, right?" I just laughed and said, "Yes, yes they do." Thank goodness it was a Friday! I live for my weekends. However, I love teaching. I love the stressors it brings, because the rewards are so much greater. I left with the biggest smile on my face. I know I put in a lot of hard work in today, but it was all worth it. I love what I do.
