All kids should learn, let's try to make it fun!
I became a second grade teacher in 2014 and it completely changed my life. I had enjoyed jobs before, but I had never felt like it was a "calling" until I began teaching. As a second grade teacher I was able to actually make a difference in children's lives, and that was a feeling like no other. My absolute favorite part of the job was creating new and interesting ways to teach. Outside the box methods became a specialty of mine. Now when I teach it has a high emphasis on fun, rewards, and ga... Read more
