a third-year teacher's escapades in the realm of the public high school. sometimes witty. sometimes sad. sometimes angry. always exhausted. it's a bumpy ride, but i wait for the moments that make it worth it.

busy month
February was a busy month for me...term paper season, too much cold weather, illness, getting my tonsils out.
Hopefully I won't be ill as often once they're gone.
I don't have a whole lot to say...just wanted to post something.
Hi! I like your blog and would like to invite you to join ‘Teachers Planet’: http://teachersplanet.ning.com/
It is an online community for teachers of all levels and curriculum areas.Your visit to the network will provide an opportunity for you to share your expertise with our teachers.At teachers planet you can start your own groups, start/participate in a discussion/ forum, add videos, music, RSS feeds, start blogs and do many more things.
I really like comment you have in your heading. I feel like my blog could have a very similar heading. You would only have to replace 2nd year with 3rd, and high school with elementary school.
I can relate to a lot of your posts.

I just wanted to make sure that you were invited to our education "Blogger Summit". We hope you can make it and feel free to share this invitation with any other bloggers in the area that might be interested. The invitation is attached below.
Alex ED In '08 Blogger Summit
--------------------------------
Strong American Schools is excited to announce the ED in '08 Blogger Summit. Conference details are as follows:
May 14th - 15th Palomar Hotel, Washington DC Registration is Free!
An opening reception is scheduled on the evening of Wednesday, May 14th. Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres will be served before the screening of a new documentary film on education, Two Million Minutes. A Q&A session with the filmmakers is set to follow.
Then join us for an all-day conference on May 15th. Nowhere else will you have an opportunity to meet and network with fellow education bloggers, participate in panels, attend workshops, and help tackle some tough questions on the state of education in America.
Just found your blog, and trust me, I know what you mean. Hardest job you'll ever love, right?
I really enjoyed the honesty in your frustration with kids over Julius Caesar. I personally love teaching Macbeth, but I try to break the language down and have them react to the frankness with which Shakespeare approached gore and violence, because it shocks many of my students despite what they see on television these days. I wish you the best of luck!
I know you have not posted in several months (trust I have done that on my blog on many occasions) but I am curious to hear how your first year of teaching turned out.
Are you coming back into the trenches for this upcoming year? Drop by my blog sometimes and let me now how things turned out (you have my blog listed as "A Teacher's Perspective" but I changed the name to "a voice from the middle" - the old addy will still get you there.
This time of year is always very busy for us teachers. In addition to working again and watching the seasons change - I can't help to think if there is a psychological depression/condition that teachers face from having to work and vacation for so long?
I am a test user on a new website APPLEBATCH which allowed me to connect with teachers, school psychs and social workers across the US. So, I asked them what the scoop is and no one really knows. Might be a great topic for a term paper or research thesis for grad work.

i'm a third-year teacher at a large school in the midwest. this is a blog of my successes, my failures and my rants...and i guarantee there will probably be more of the latter two.

You essentially need to persuade the bank with a substantial reason and need to pay an extra sum other than the premium.
