It has been a long week already and I've only blogged twice. I spend much of my time working on the weekend and it always seems as though I have something to do that keeps me from napping throughout the week. My father told me that overtime my body would start to become tired this semester. This is nothing new to me since it tends to happen every semester. It's interesting to see the teachers start the year bright and happy each day and as the year continues to go by, they slowly but surely start to become tired.
A good teacher pushes through these moments. It is impossible to "never" show the students that you are becoming worn down, but a really good teacher can manipulate the scene of their classroom enough to never show this as a weakness. It is important for us to show the students in our class the true meaning of perseverance.
As this blog comes to an end, I simply must remember that although my body may become tired, I have to push through for the children. Although this is very simple and it is not some extravagant revolution, I can simply sum this up with the phrase stated by my mentor teacher, "Welcome to teaching".
