Teacher Week- 5 Fun Facts
It is time for teacher week! Are you ready?
I know my Blog Hoppin’ girls and I are!
Yep, I really did. I’ve never shared this on my blog before. I was thrown into a high poverty area my first year and was in a complete culture shock. One day after school, I drove back to my parents house 20 minutes away a complete mess. I was going to move home and just work at Walmart. That was my bawling, freaking out plan. It was actually this week 7 years ago:). And now, I thank the man above for putting me into that situation and pushing me through it. It truly helped me become the teacher I am today. This will be my 7th year in a high poverty area and I love every little bit of it. I am sharing this to any teacher out there struggling, especially new teachers. That first year is hard, but you can do it. Granted, it never gets “easy” but it does get a lot dang better!
Another “fact” about me that I’ve never shared here before:) I don’t have a ton of symptoms these days, but I sure do need way more sleep than the average person. I try to stick to a pretty set sleeping schedule in order to keep my body on track. When I start to feel really worn down, I need a good day or two of sleeping on and off. So, by 8-9 each evening you can find me in my bed relaxing and getting ready for a good nights sleep. Stress also can impact my CFS so I really try to LET IT GO!
Now it is your turn! Head on over to Blog Hoppin’ to link up for Teacher Week!
