When was the last time you were in a classroom?

Who was it for?  Your child's or grandchild's back to school night, parent teacher meeting?  Science projects?

 Perphaps you have gone back to school?

 

The last time I was in a classroom was last year  (January)for my nephew, it was for a what are we going to do with him meeting with several school staff and his therapist.  Not fun.

Quoting Esmrlda:

 Wow! Thats a long time in class rooms. 

Quoting teaching1972:

I started school when I was four. After that there was only one year that I wasn't in school until 2011. Since then we have visited our grandsons each year to eat with them and attend activities or pick them up. 

I guess I should have added that from 1972 to 2011 I was mostly the teacher. I continued taking classes to get my masters degree and workshops to stay current.  For the most part, I loved it.

 

 Thats great that you enjoy it.

[Esmrlda]

 I can only imagine how rewarding it can be.

Quoting tinysmom160:

Yes it is hard work in many ways but pay is better but I really enjoy teaching the little ones.

Quoting Esmrlda:

 You can say that again!

Quoting tinysmom160:

More money nursing

Quoting Esmrlda:

 What made you give up teaching?

Quoting tinysmom160:

When my daughter was in first grade I taught for 3 years and had my own classroom so 15 years ago
