spring fever

This semester has been one like no other. Trying to do my job as effectively and whole-hearted as possible has been quite difficult honestly. Each day presents itself with new challenges to work through and overcome. Our team has had to lean on God each day and trust that he is working in our classrooms. It is so amazing to me that teaching is not consistent nor is it simple. When you think you have one skill down or teach a subject effectively, the next day it's back to square one. I guess a lot of jobs are like that. Things constantly change and we have to continue to learn new approaches and find what works well for that particular group of students.

We are on spring break now, and for the past five days I've been on antibiotics, trying to kick whatever it is that I have. Thankfully I do have the time to rest, though it is not my ideal of a restful break. I guess I'll just have to wait and see how the rest of the week goes!
