Teachers of today… especially here in Florida are struggling with such a divisive political climate…
From my own reflection, just eight years ago… before retirement…Teaching was quite challenging, yet…I believed in hope for a better day for our precious children…
Our classroom was that loving, safe place…My class was that beautiful representation of diversity… Learning was that essential component to success..
And moreover, my children wanted to learn … It was my job to provide a developmentally, relevant curriculum…
Parents were essential…We were a team…Our school wanted our parents to be involved… Programs and volunteering were a part of the day…We so appreciated our parents…
