Just finished midterm progress reports which are just like report cards.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135596215047353410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2551539772201422364.post-89231799142100162012012-12-08T22:16:35.223-05:002012-12-08T22:16:35.223-05:00Ugh, Judy. I really do love being a teacher. I H...Ugh, Judy. I really do love being a teacher. I HATE grading. I'd rather sit down with parents and discuss it or write a descriptive paragraph about their progress. I hate the the comparisons parents and kids make with letter grades. Only an "A" can possibly mean that child is doing his/her best. These poor kids are surrounded by comparisons instead of looking at their own personal bests and being themselves, they are trying to be like a tv star or some other student. We are fearfully and wonderfully made by God. We are unique and created for a purpose... If only I could get that across! But, I can't change hearts. Only God...<br /><br />Anyhooo, Yeah. I am still grumpy from grading... :) What do you teach? <br /><br />So, let us both go relax and be glad it is over. For now... Ugh.<br /><br />Blessings!!!!

Cindi!!!!!!
I have 2 weeks until break. I can...Hi. Cindi!!!!!!<br />I have 2 weeks until break. I can't wait. The kids were acting like break starts tomorrow! Actually, I was thinking of something else for the R's, but I like yours better!!!! Love it! As far as the picture- an Italian explorer who was hired by Spain to find a shorter route to India. He even has his own holiday! <br /><br />I got some done today. I am still out of steam from staying up late working on report cards! So, I put some things up, got distracted, got on the computer, worked on some crafts, got on the computer... You get the picture. I have one area decorated and the rest is a disaster! How does that happen????<br /><br />I hope this finds you well! It is so good to chat with you! Thank you for stopping by, dear friend. I really appreciate it!<br /><br />Blessings and hugs!<br />HeatherAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054864886481707686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2551539772201422364.post-25174127403128199432012-12-08T21:20:37.983-05:002012-12-08T21:20:37.983-05:00I sure can relate...I am a teacher, too and have b...I sure can relate...I am a teacher, too and have been through these things recently as well.
