The stress is back

After a relaxing 5 days, I'm 2 days back in and stressed again. I sent home letters to all my parents telling them their child's grade and letting them know about some study sessions I will be having after school. Of my 66 students, I had 5 show up today but am hoping to get more coming to other sessions. I have so many students who have D's and F's, but I seem to be much more concerned about this than the students. I am hoping that some of the parents will share in my concern. This profression seems to be an emotional roller-coaster. I am always trying to figure out how to connect with, reach, settle down, and teach some of my students. Sometimes I think things are changing with a particular student, and the next day thing are back to where we started. I try to keep my mind on the highs and forget the lows, but it is very hard some days. All in all, I am surviving and I am starting to believe that I might last more than 1 year.

my second 1st post

I just made a post, but I think I posted it to Adan Wade's page. I was explaining my lack of computer skill, which could explain why it went there. Had a great Thanksgiving and am ready to get back to work for a few weeks.
