Math Teacher Question:

Everything! I enjoy the struggles, the hardships, the students, the laughs, the dancing (yes, we dance), and the learning. Each day is very different than the day before, and the students keep me on my toes. Teaching allows you to work with an amazing group of kids, while also challenging you as an adult.

Each day I learn something new, be it from my students, from other teachers, and even my own mistakes. Fifth graders are amazing and it is wonderful watching them grow. They are witty and coming into their own. They are learning how to be sarcastic and express themselves. I enjoy watching them figure out who they are, who they want to be, and who they decide to hang out with. In teaching leadership at our school, they also learn a lot about how to make good choices and plan for their future. The Seven Habits have been a great addition to my classroom.
