Missing the classroom.

I use to be a first and 2nd grade teacher.  Then I became a homeschool mom.  Today I was looking at a few of my teaching buddies classroom blogs and missed my job. Don't get me wrong I love teaching my oldest at home but it's not the same as having a classroom.  Group projects aren't the same without the group.  I don't have a dedicated homeschool room either to decorate.  However when I did, we never worked in there we continued to use the dining room table. Right now I am right where God wants me but I love to reminiscing on my teaching days.

Some of my students have green eggs and ham.  This was my last year in the classroom.

I don't know if I'll ever go back to the traditional classroom. Since becoming a homeschool mom my philosophy of education has completely changed.  The things I use to think were SUPER important are not that major on the larger scale.  Lastly, it's more important to me that my children know how to learn than just learning itself.  I want them to be fully equipped to learn whatever they want.  Boy times have changed and so have I!!
