• About Me


    Where do I start??? I grew up outside of Chicago, IL but now reside outside of Minneapolis, MN. I've been called many names in my life.... many of them derivitives of my given name. My son calls me Mommy. My husband calls me Honey. My students call me Teacher. My family calls me lots of things... However, here, you may call me Tendrils. I love to spend time with my family and friends. I enjoy reading, blogging, and scrapping in my "free time" (what is that?!?!)

Oh, no….I’ve become THAT teacher

Posted on April 30, 2008 by tendrils

When I first started teaching, I hated when veteran teachers would yell at my kids right on front of me. It made me feel worthless and very uncomfortable.

So, what did I do yesterday?

I marched right into the room next door and started yelling at the kids for being so loud my kids and I couldn’t even listen to each other read aloud in our room…making a new teacher feel like crap.

Yep, I am now one of THOSE teachers.

Great. *sarcasm*

    Ah yes. . . . I did the same thing last year. . . . I’ve never seen a teacher go pink so quickly. I totally embarrassed her. . .

    Oh well . . . . yup. . . we’re gettin’ “veteran”
