I have to say that teachers get the shaft! I have the privilege to class sit once a month for 3 hours at Pinson Elementary. Meaghan had Christy Thompson last year and I cover for her while she attends her BBSST meeting. It seems to me that teachers sometimes do not get the respect that they deserve. These kids can be a handful sometimes, however, I really enjoy being there with them. I always bring some kind of craft or something fun for us to do. They always seem so happy to see me and that makes it worth the effort.
The challenges that some classes have would seem to be overwhelming. Miss Thompson's class has three children that are learning English, 4 children with some degree of learning difficulty and a few that have enough energy for 20 kids. To an untrained person I guess it could be overwhelming, but to a professional it is part of the every day. Having said that, I must commend these teachers - give me Papa any day!!
