I had been at my previous school for so long that the people around me just finally accepted my weirdness and crazy thoughts/ideas.<br />Well, now I'm at a new school and I'm realizing what my past principal was saying. I do teach (and think) differently. I spent the first part of the school year trying to "fit in" and boy-oh-boy was I miserable. I'm getting back to being me and I'm enjoying teaching a lot more again. I am certainly not a cookie-cutter teacher and I'm realizing that I can't make myself be one.<br />I may not feel understood in my building (yet), but I'm thankful that I'm not alone. Thanks again for your post!<br />~KelseyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8708538586034027731.post-12981514426692698542015-08-30T08:29:44.619-07:002015-08-30T08:29:44.619-07:00Thanks Tammy!
