I went back to college to get my credentials. While we admired the professors and their efforts, my classmates and I noticed a glaring problem: there was little to no exposure or discussion of what actually happens, day to day, hour by hour, event by event, in (or out of) the classroom for the rookie teacher. After getting my teaching certificate, I did about of year of substitute teaching at all levels, including one day when I literally lost a class of first graders. "Uh, Mrs. Wilson, did you see where my class went?" I then obtained a job teaching high school social studies, and my wife and several small kids moved to attempt this adventure. We had our feet planted firmly in mid-air. This book is a trench level walk through the first year of a high school teacher, dealing with the preparation needed, and abandoned, the angst of wanting to succeed and be accepted, and the interactions with the willing and not-so-willing students. As said elsewhere, as you come on this walk, don't wear your nice shoes.vizualizați mai puține
