I used to find that really hard, working with great teachers, 'cause everything that they were doing that I wasn't, was a sign of my own failure, but that's such a wrong way to look at things. Every teacher has their strengths and it's our diversity that makes us so valuable to our kids
I work with such great teachers. My new job has me in and out of Prep, One and Two, so I get to see these great women at work, creating such brilliant learning environments for their kids. The teachers are all diverse in the way they create these rooms, but they are all so talented and dedicated and ever looking to improve.

Wow! I just came upon your website as I started teaching summer school to Kindergarteners (in the DC area of the USA). Its my 8th year teaching and I found out the day before school started that they wanted me to teach Kinder and not 5th grade :) Its a wonderful gift and challenge and finding your AMAZING website reaffirms to me the gift that being a teacher. Your love for our profession and students along with the beautiful website you have created (HUGE Gift to all teachers) is truly radiant. Thank you for doing this, for taking the time, for working so respectfully and lovingly with OUR future. All the best to you!!

Tricia, thanks so much. We are so lucky to be able to make a career doing something that we love so much. You must've been a tad thrown (!) when you found out about the change of grade. But you sound like a really positive person, so I bet you nailed it!!
