I wonder sometimes if teaching passionately for an entire 40-year career is possible, or if everyone eventually burns out. <br /><br />As Julie says, you have summed up our frustrating, tiring, inspiring chosen profession very well. This is a message that needs to be brought to the attention of parents, media and other critics at regular intervals.Peter Pricehttp://www.classroomprofessor.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398761775627125562.post-57053535052901956262011-03-31T23:36:25.896-05:002011-03-31T23:36:25.896-05:00Great list Josh.
