So this year I have actually been keeping busy. I just finished working nine days straight (in the sub world that is crazy busy.) I even had a young man comment that I am practically at his school everyday. He ended that conversation by saying "hope you enjoy being here like ALL the time!" Well Mr. Man I do enjoy it.
Getting to sub this much is so great. I get to see a lot of teachers that I really enjoy talking with (because they are amazing!) I get to work with kids who make me have lots of hope for the future (because they are amazing as well!) Also subbing this much gets my teacher ju-ju flowing. (That is not as gross as it sounds.)
By teacher ju-ju, I mean I have been reflecting and learning so much this year. Going all over, helps me to see things from a different point of view. I get to interact with people I don't normally interact with. I also get to ponder problems that I normally don't face. Going to new schools and classrooms allows me to see the many different ways that education issues can be handled. It really is fascinating to see!
Even though working all over this much can be difficult (for example when I forget where I am and have to ask a student for directions back to my own classroom [embarrassing]), I am so grateful for the fantastic experience.
