Hi All,
It is easy to see that school has begun; people are rushed, under pressure, and focused on their tasks at hand. I can sense this every year just by reading the forum posts--people need things and are pressed for time so the messages are always short and to the point (I need, I�m looking for, etc.). Most remember to add some form of thank-you, others don�t. RELAX!!
In a few years you will look back at these days and miss them--don�t let them get away. Take a moment and remember to enjoy the ride. Most of us are working in our dream job/profession. Teaching is awesome and we are lucky to be a part of it.
Now STOP! Take a look around your classroom and take a look at your students--feel the atmosphere. Now SMILE! You are experiencing the "good times" right now; enjoy them.
Cheers,
Douglas |

Yes, Douglas, you �re completely right ... I �ve almost noticed we thank less and less when downloading the work from others . We got the worksheet and that�s enough ...who cares about the work behind it . |

Couldn �t agree more! I ended up teaching by chance (I studied law!?!) and still think it is one of the best things that ever happened to me, couldn �t think of a more awesome job! |
