Eeeek! My very first parent teacher conferences....ever! I was a bit nervous. In our faculty meeting the day before we were reassured with horror stories and a list of do's and don'ts to say to parents. This amounted to "Don't curse at the parents or tell them their child is as dumb as a rock." So I was left with a feeling of anything can happen, prepare for the worst. PTL, my parents are wonderful. They were very supportive and willing to work with their kids in areas of weakness. I was so thankful. I am amazed that I could love my kids as much as I do. While I want to pull out my hair somedays, I always look forward to seeing them in the morning. I am truly blown away by this fact. (It has to be a God thing)
Precious teaching moment #1: Teaching students that are learning English as a 2nd language has proven to be very difficult. But, I am constanly presented with moments that literaly make me LOL.
Student writing: Shitting is wrong, I will never shit again. He was trying to write cheat!!!
