It is seeing our students go on to do great things in a sometimes uninspiring world that makes all the effort worthwhile. :)SocrMom78https://www.blogger.com/profile/03238043257356421980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236334828969414641.post-67444755929592304512010-06-04T05:05:40.594-07:002010-06-04T05:05:40.594-07:00Wow-- I love to find new blogs by librarians and t...Wow-- I love to find new blogs by librarians and teachers.

They really do deserve million dollar bonuses. And a special hooray to Mirium McCort, my English teacher from long ago who made such an impression upon me, who's favorite phrase was "keep a green bough in your heart, and a bird will come singing."KY Warrior Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14855747476470094093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236334828969414641.post-18884263366438233592010-05-28T14:59:50.443-07:002010-05-28T14:59:50.443-07:00This was wonderful!

I am exhausted but relieved tonight because I successfully entered grades for my 130 seniors today--well ahead of deadline. This was a victory, since we switched to a new computerized grading system in Feb. and no one, including the tech folks, knew how we were supposed to figure grades for the year. Just 8 more days to go!bibliophiliachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495943887513443615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236334828969414641.post-50493786253377865912010-05-27T12:26:26.208-07:002010-05-27T12:26:26.208-07:00that is beautiful. that love of language is a won...that is beautiful. that love of language is a wonderful thing to give another person. congratulations. it sounds like you are a wonderful teacher.Priya Parmarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756102036026323839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236334828969414641.post-16757337066726279682010-05-27T06:45:39.500-07:002010-05-27T06:45:39.500-07:00I hear you!!
