		<description><![CDATA[I thought I was going to teach fourth grade but I was moved to fifth, which I have never done before and kind of scared me. I didn&#8217;t know what to expect about the kids I&#8217;d get and if they&#8217;d be big and cynical or &#8220;too cool for school&#8221; or what. Fifth is the final [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=leafturned.wordpress.com&blog=2102554&post=436&subd=leafturned&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I am enjoying it, but whoever thinks that teachers are, like, totally &#8220;off&#8221; for the summer are wrong. My brain thinks all the time about what my [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=leafturned.wordpress.com&blog=2102554&post=435&subd=leafturned&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

He was placed in my self-contained ESL class because, as I was told, &#8220;he hasn&#8217;t been tested yet.&#8221; This meant he had not [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=leafturned.wordpress.com&blog=2102554&post=420&subd=leafturned&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
