That is so cool to hear! It is amazing how much children touch our lives as teachers; I can only hope to touch them as much.
I absolutely love teaching my first and second grade students. I "loop" with my students from first to second grade, so I really feel like I get to know them as well as their families.
I just completed my second Master's Degree in education, and I am now exploring different Ed. D programs. Part of me is looking for a new challenge. I am thinking about getting my supervision credentials and looking for a position as a Student Teacher Supervisor.
