So I am back from Italy and have much to share, but all that is on my mind is SCHOOL.
What most people don't know is teachers are just as nervous as the children. We start thinking about classroom set-up, supplies and the kids in the first week in August. No matter when we can start setting up, we never feel that there is enough time. There is always some sort of work that is done over the summer and we start almost from scratch every year.
We don't say I have work tomorrow, we say I have school tomorrow. Therefore we suffer from the first day jitters every year. Imagine having new co-workers (parents) and clients (the students) every year, and you might begin to see where the stress comes from.
So. . . . .If you know a teacher offer to give them a hand in anyway you can. It will be appreciated as more than you can imagine.
