Carnival of Education
The newest Carnival Of Education is over at Jenny D.'s. Check it out; it's really diverse this week, and Jenny goes out of her way to make an intelligent comment or two about each.
As I explore the issues of teaching my emotionally disabled students, I purposefully change names, genders, ages, and other salient information. If you think you know who I am writing about, you're probably wrong. After 22 years of teaching, I have a wide variety of resources to inspire my reflections. My goal is to provoke discussion, but never at the expense of professional confidentiality.
From an unknown but appreciated source....
"Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit."
