Parent Teacher Conferences

Awww...it's that time of year again, where parents try to be in denial about their children. Cracks me up sometimes when they are like really I don't see that, or are you sure they are behaving well...umm I said that didn't I. Sometimes I wish I could just tell them to come in for a day and let me go to the spa and they can figure out how to watch, teach, and help raise 21 seven year olds...that would be lovely. Maybe I will put that on my Christmas wish list...haha! I'd end up with a room full of kids out of control and a parent who would never again enter my classroom. (which might be nice to have some parents out of my room) Overall, though it is going well, and I so appareciate when they tell me how they couldn't see how to do this job, and that I am a wonderful teacher...that's always nice to hear. So remember that when you have kids, give your child's teacher a little break every once and a while and tell them nice things you like about them or their classroom...you'll probably get alot more nice comments about your child in return. Just my thoughts for the day.
