summer work
By Peg

Clip to ScrapBook   
I am going into my 24th year of teaching and I love it so much that I "play school" all summer long! My room is always cleaned first in the summer because I like to go in and set it up and work on units, bulletin boards,
etc. Some of my friends and family used to worry about me, but have come to realize that this is my hobby as well as my profession. They now see that I am blessed to love what I do for a living so much that I choose to do it in my free time. I haven't burnt out yet, after all these years of this habit. I love the quiet time in summer when I can allow my creative juices to flow. On the other
hand, I know excellent teachers who do take a break in the summer, and that works for them. To each his own! You have to do what makes you feel good about yourself and your teaching.
