All about teachers and the world of teaching; teachers sharing their best and worst interactions with students, best teaching practices, the path to becoming a teacher, and more.
The Problem with School
Woes of School It would be easy to pass this prose as a lazy youthful moaning regarding the structures of society and success. However, I urge you not to dismiss so easily the thoughts I present here. “Every boy hates school; it’s nothing new.” On this, we can agree; many sons have a distaste for the education system. They despise waking up at the crack of dawn to stand outside through wind, rain, and snow in some states. With a loathing, boys trudge from class to class, expected to sit for hours until they can finally leave the confines of the building to be home. The difference between my experience and most schoolboys is that I was home-educated. This means I did not have to wake at the crack of dawn most days; I did not have to wait for a school bell to free me from the droning of school.

Teaching is my Regret
My regrets are my long journey of trying to become a full-time teacher. Which, I am still not a full-time teacher, by the way. I started substitute teaching in Lewis county, West Virginia. I was not from the area I had to move back after college in with my grandparents. I was told by a relative substitute teachers are needed. All they required was a Bachelors's degree. Cool. I was all about this job. I went to certify with RESA. After a few years of substitute teaching, I decided I liked teaching and taking the time to make sure that students understand.

American History
Columbus leads Europeans to explore New World Columbus headed directly west and started the 'Geographic Revolution'. (Term on blackboard) On October 12, 1492, landed what called San Salvador - now Watling's Island in the Bahamas. After several attempts, he still believed that he failed in his goals and died in 1506. Vasco Nunez de Balboa discovered a new ocean in 1513 as he starts across the Isthmus of Panama. (The teacher shows the students or have them locate on a map the Isthmus of Panama.) Balboa is seeking gold that Indians tell him that lies in the west. He is led through a hot forest and many hardships and finally at the foot of a mountain catches a glimpse of the 'South Sea' now the Pacific Ocean.
