So You Want to Teach?

Sorry, Joel, totally, ripped off your blog's name here.

But, I received an email from Wendy Graham the other day, linking to a post that she put together recently. The post is called 100 Reasons to be a Teacher, and it's worth checking out.

I might not agree completely with the entire list, but there are some good ones on there.

Number 8 -- Holidays and Weekends – Having this time off is a gift that teachers take for granted too often

Number 46 -- Students – Molding Minds – The age old idea of teaching someone something they need to know

Number 80 -- Problem solving – Large and small problems occur and are addressed daily

I forgive you, mi amigo. :)

Great reasons there, by the way. Weekends would be nice if I actually had a few free ones...ugh!

whoa, am i the only one who thought that list was a little...off?

just one strange example that caught my eye:
"Minimum Days – What other job has specific days or weeks where you only work 4 hours, but get paid for a full day!"

what??? Also, she has snacks and teacher assistants--where is this lady teaching, because I would like to go there! :)
