Z is for…

Z is for… Zoinks Scoob! We made it all the way through the A-to-Z Blogging Challenge!

No, really, Z is for Zookeeper. Because when I tell people that I am a middle school teacher, that’s what they see me as.
In a group, kids that age can be a challenge– but individually, they’re just kids. Each one with his or her own likes and dislikes, hopes and dreams, gifts and challenges. No matter who is a teacher’s pet and who’s a teacher’s pest, they all deserve a chance to learn and grow and become successful, just the same. They all deserve the best from you.

And with that, I close this challenge. I am honestly stunned that I finished something I started, when it comes to writing anyway. They weren’t all the best posts, but I tried to offer something insightful every day. I didn’t get around to visiting others completing the challenge much, but I am going to find someone new every day to visit. Now that I’ve used “every day” twice in as many sentences, it’s probably time for me to stop.

Thanks for reading. On to May and… whatever theme shall lay its veil across the month.
