Its nice to know you are not alone - that someone else can offer support because they've been there as well.<br /><br />You / your reflection and lesson ideas have always inspired me to better my classroom. I am so glad to see you back in action - I have missed it. <br /><br />I am definitely up for chats on any professional reading - just name the day/time and I'll meet you on Twitter! <br /><br />Thank you for your honesty and reflection...looking forward to reading more!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-30007293978652820012013-04-29T09:02:28.937-05:002013-04-29T09:02:28.937-05:00I feel like I'm reading a post that I could ha...I feel like I'm reading a post that I could have easily written about myself! It's so nice to know I'm not alone in getting the teaching blues this time of year. I always get very reflective, which I guess is a good thing because it makes me excited to try new stuff the next year. I just hope there will come a year when I can stay motivated through the end of the year and look back and say "I did a good job, every day, all year long! I'm completely satisfied with myself this year!". Maybe one day....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15504319184275421843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-35374632138747083182013-04-27T22:14:20.438-05:002013-04-27T22:14:20.438-05:00Caren - definitely you should try twitter :) We h...Caren - definitely you should try twitter :) We have an amazing PLC over there that truly is my support group in so many ways! Twitter is hands-down the best PD I've ever participated in! Most of the people in my blog-roll are my twitter friends and are amazing teachers!<br /><br />The Twitter Book Club was started a few years ago when we started reading about Standards Based Grading. Over the years, we've read books on feedback, assessment, strategies, etc. I got away from it this year and felt myself losing ground as a professional as a result. I'm eager to get back to the book club, because that's when I grew the most. I hope you join us! druinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363634340959613461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51958265250790371.post-5003893856222713252013-04-27T17:45:08.347-05:002013-04-27T17:45:08.347-05:00I so appreciate your post!

I can see so many areas I need to strengthen - so many things I want to do better in the coming year.<br /><br />I'm not on Twitter ... but I'd love to know more about the book club! I am learning so much from the online math community!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05447255912554859614noreply@blogger.com
