For me, personally, the end of this year also brings an end to my journey as a Resource/Inclusion teacher for students with special needs. I know I will miss working with my kids, miss the challenges of finding that perfect lesson or that little trick that helps turn on the light bulb, miss the excitement in their eyes when something suddenly makes sense, miss being there to support them when their confidence is at its lowest, miss collaborating with all their home-room teachers and other support staff to figure out the best way to grow their success, miss connecting with parents, helping them understand that we are all on the same side and together we will make the difference...and my list goes on...
...but I had reached a burn-out point, and I did not want to let that change the attitude I brought to school or the way I worked with my students. So, after much contemplation, and many, many discussions, I have chosen to make a change...I will be teaching Pre-Kindergarten next year...
...so, the end of this year also brings excitement...the excitement of new challenges, new students, new lessons to learn...
I would like to thank each of you for your support this year - students, parents, colleagues, friends and family...2015-2016 was an interesting year, and I could not have done it without you.
...with much love...
Enjoy your summer!
Relax...Rejuvenate...and Read!!!
