WE ALL NEED HELP!
I taught full time for fifteen years and am now subbing so that I can finish my novel. I don't have all the answers. None of us do. In fact, even if something works great for me, there is no guarantee it will work for you.
I hope that we will give each other suggestions. I went to all the trainings I could get my principal to approve when I taught full-time. I talked to a lot of teachers. AND I just kept trying things until I found something that worked FOR ME. We can not go against our own nature. Kids can sense that and will test us.
So, don't give up. Keep on trying new things and always know that there is a place to go where you can be anonymous and speak freely.
Best of Luck to all of you. Our children deserve the best that we can offer.

Teaching Spanish? Lucky you! The Mejia Godoys, Ruben Blades, Victor Jara! That how I learned Spanish!
ReplyDeletePlease share with staff. And consider interviewing me when the book is out. Also, I can write stories on El Salvador, Central America & all of Latin America.
I am interested in running writing workshops, for teens, young women & women at risk. And though I haven't worked with seniors yet, I would like to help them write their life stories.
You can still see my Kickstarter campaign though you can't pledge anymore.

My story deals with the children who lost their childhood because of the war.
