It's always good to know that you're explaining "stuff" the way that kids need to hear it. Thanks for continuing to read. It's getting pretty obvious that I'm in summer hiatus mode. I promise there's more blogging during the school year.<br /><br />JessicaJessica Herring Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08560548178691866513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4635174945962360271.post-18311457458277280802012-07-02T18:14:39.224-05:002012-07-02T18:14:39.224-05:00Just sayin’ . . .
Don’t neglect your rep . . .
...Just sayin’ . . . <br /><br />Don’t neglect your rep . . . <br /><br />I have 9 more days of summer school left and for reasons beyond my understanding . . . I’m teaching 9th graders . . . <br /><br />So this morning, a woman I’d never met before was in the office to see if her daughter could drive herself to school (seems there’s a district policy) and she called me by name.<br /><br />Apparently, at some point in my past I’d had 2 of her three children in class . . . and her youngest was now in summer school . . . <br /><br />She said, “She really likes you . . . she said, ‘Mr. Wootton explains the stuff.” (yup . . . stuff).<br /><br />While it was nice to hear, it did remind me how who I am moves through the years.<br /><br />An amazing responsibility.<br /><br />I’ll forgo the chocolate and yogurt . . . <br /><br />I’m gonna tear the tiles outta my bathroom . . . <br /><br />Relax how you can.<br /><br />Enjoy the beach.<br /><br />GlennAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00278111653222334089noreply@blogger.com
