Teaching March 4, 2011

Today, I worked with middle and high school teachers watching them decide how to get better.  There is agony over the books to select, the roots to teach, the flexibility of credits we can offer, the content of the work for international students.  Every heart is leaning towards the students and hoping to find the better answer for this kid or that one.  It is glorious and frustrating, pushing each other to go beyond bias and opinion to consensus.

  2. The tension and hope in this situation shows in your writing. Hard frustrating work all for such an important purpose.
