A comment on "First Year Teacher's" blog
In all due respect, after reading some of your entries, I feel as if teaching isn't really what you want to do in life. I am not you, so of course, I can't say how you feel about anything. I agree with some of your beliefs, such as "kids can rise to your expectations", and according to my educational psychology book so do other people. You commented on "needing to find a happy place", but yet your posts (at least what I've read) are mostly negative or commenting on how someone is wrong and you are right. That may be the case, but if you want to find a happy place, maybe you should post on some of the positive things that occur in your educational life. I completely understand though how soothing it is to vent your frustrations in a journal (or blog will you), so I am not condemning you for doing so; just giving you some suggestion.

thanks for the advice. if you read more of my blog, though, i think you would find that i post about a lot of my positive experiences. i'm having a bad couple of months at my school and i'm posting about it; just as i post when i have good times. as far as teaching being my "calling", you may be right. i'm still trying to figure that out and i talk a lot about that in my blog, too.
