After our "perfect" one died we were sure the next one would be "the one from hell." <br /><br />At least you didn't give up on the career after your less than stellar first year and it seemed that you were deeply loved and respected by your students at the end of your career.<br /><br />That was interesting about transformational grammar. I hadn't heard that term before. You explained it great. I graduated in 1975 so I don't think it affected me too much if any and besides I graduated from high school in California and they always seemed to be behind with what the Eastern folks were doing in teaching. For exampled, I learned cursive in 1st grade at a Catholic school in Pennsylvania. When moving to a new one in San Diego for the 3rd grade, they were just learning it.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-67638042115222234992019-09-04T18:49:50.532-04:002019-09-04T18:49:50.532-04:00I’m sure many of us who were teachers look back on...I’m sure many of us who were teachers look back on that first year feeling we failed those students. I certainly do. Luckily they moved on and hopefully experienced one or some of the excellent teachers met through other years.crgalvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01118766224187668713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-60672849353017751882019-09-04T16:06:08.437-04:002019-09-04T16:06:08.437-04:00This is a fun post.
