I finish teaching this Friday and have one more week of observations and then I will be done! Yeah! All in all, it has been a good experience. I have felt very blessed to be at the school I am at and with the teacher I am with. I feel like someone was looking out for me. I have loved most of my students. I really will be sad to leave them, but I know it is time to be done. It is time to enjoy motherhood again. It is time to let Tim focus on his studies again. It is just time.
Today, I had a sad experience. One of my favorite students was made fun of in such a way that made my eyes tear up and my stomach sink. I had forgotten how cruel teenagers can be. I didn't know how to fix the situation at the time so I just ended up feeling bad. I like being a teacher but I don't like watching students be mean. It is not fair. I will not allow it in my own classroom.
