There's just so much extraneous garbage required of teachers there that I didn't have the energy I wanted to give to my students! Now I am free to teach my butt off, with accountability measures that make sense and good school support staff, and it's a blast.<br /><br />I am now very curious about anything else by RR--I have to figure out where reading fits into my new schedule. Oh, and do some damage to the Goodreads list I made in January of fifty books I was determined to read this year--I think I have thirty or so left!

Seriously, at the beginning of the summer, I was shaking for fifteen minutes after every driving lesson, and now it feels like I've been doing it forever. If I can do it, I know you can!Mrs. Silversteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15081113623522933830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2671037899293269779.post-28941869010469281702013-09-09T15:49:30.717-04:002013-09-09T15:49:30.717-04:00I loved ELEANOR & PARK too and your thoughts o...I loved ELEANOR & PARK too and your thoughts on their relationship were captured so perfectly. That's great that you're enjoying your new teaching positions already and that you're students are awesome. They're lucky to have a teacher like you! Hope things settle down a bit for you soon so you have a chance to relax and read some more! :)Erin L.

I hope the term goes smoothly for you. :-)<br /><br />So glad you loved E&P. I adore that book! Have you read Rainbow Rowell's ATTACHMENTS? It's fantastic!

I knew this would be a book that you loved as well! Happy to hear that work is going well and that you're enjoying both schools. I'm envious of your licensed driving status. I think I might need to copy you really soon. ;-)Jaime Morrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023932422477544525noreply@blogger.com
