A Day in the Life of a Teacher
It's Friday. What did I do? I got to work at 6:45 am to get out scissors, scapels, tweezers and blunt probes for high school students to use (just think about that for a moment). 7:00 am. After showing two teachers how to breathe right to reduce stress (another unit taught in a different class), I proceeded to practice an eye dissection, completing such activity in 5 minutes...it is now 7:45 am.
After pushing tables together, prepping a computer lab, and finding a video at the library for 5th period (I need a break), I rest for 5 minutes (drink water and breathe), then prepare for the kids (it is now 8:45 am).
Seven hours, one vomiting student, one meeting, and a smelly classroom later...they have left. Now I need to clean up from today and prep for Monday.
Friday...ah...no students tomorrow and I can lie in bed (see weekends.). Beer anyone?

Hon, It just pains me to see how hard you work and your passion for children that may not even care. You really deserve a "wabbit"
