Middle School!
I barely survived my own two daughters being in middle school...I just couldn't imagine teaching middle school. I know middle school teachers though who say they don't know how I can teach 1st grade too, so I guess it's true...The Lord God Made Them All
Side note....James Herriot was one of my favorite authors when I was a middle school kid.
The Happy Edugator is Deborah (great name by the way) a 7th grade English teacher in Georgia. She has a lot of out of the box (or rather, out of the boring text book) ideas to make learning fun for her students. I wish my daughters could have had her for a teacher. I know they would have loved her!
She uses different books that I have never heard of and even an episode of the Twighlight Zone to teach those boring skills you need to know in 7th grade! And if you are teacher looking for ideas...you have got to visit her TpT store...she has almost 700 items in her store to liven up your lessons!
I had to chuckle...on her google+ profile she has a quote that should be posted in every classroom and household in which a teenager enters:
Think before you speak, and speak not all you think.
Follow me and see where I Hop to next!
