Are there moments in your job where you have to take a deep breath and remind yourself that this too shall pass. Working with little people can be overwhelming at times........especially when there are 20+ little ones and 2 adults and it seems like 19 of them are saying "Teacher......." simultaneously. It can be tiring to continually remind them of group time behavior. It requires infinite patience when someone raises their hand to tell an unrelated "story" in response to a question posed. However, these moments of craziness are few and far between, truly. Most of your days together in the classroom are busy, productive, fun, and wonderful. You laugh together, sing together, learn together and discover together. And it is so purposeful and engaging that the time really flies. Before you know it, it's time to go home. Think of the beautiful little gestures that are bestowed upon you so frequently and generously during your days at school. Could anyone ask for a more fulfilling job?
