I hate the children’s meals with unsweetened ice tea. The pizza, the lasagna, the chicken nuggets…is it any wonder why students buy Flaming Hots to eat.
But, that’s not what I really dislike about the teacher’s cafeteria. It’s the whine, without the cheese. I appreciate a good rant every now-and-then, but, everyday it’s the same sad song. You see, if all you do is complain, whine and snivel about how bad your class is then that’s all you ever notice.
Did you ever notice that some teacher’s year-in and year-out have bad classes? “Oh, this class is awful! These kids don’t want to do anything! They are so disrespectful and their parents are no help at all!” Maybe it’s not the kids?
Successful people overcome obstacles rather than allow themselves to be controlled or limited by them. Negative people only see problems because it gives them an excuse for their lack of success.
I salute the teachers I know he consider every student failure a failure of their own and strive to help every student become successful.
