There is an old joke shared among teachers..... A mother comes in trying to lure her child out of bed on the first day back to school. The mother shares all the good things that can happen in school but her child still won’t get out of bed. Her child talks about her fear that no one will like her and that the work will be too hard. The mom keeps on encouraging saying how the teacher will like her and then her child says, “But mom, you don't understand. I am the teacher !"

After 37 years in education, with the last 25 years as an elementary school counselor, I retired and moved to Florida. Although I am thoroughly enjoying my many new adventures, I am also sad to put my life's work to rest. Thus, my web site and blog. Like a coach I will share my knowledge, lessons, topics with you with the goal of enhancing your performance. Whether you are a brand new counselor or veteran there will be something for you. |
JeanetteI want to share my classroom guidance lessons with you, which provide practical, life long skills and strategies to assist students in their growth and development. Archives
