But these outsiders coming in and recording every mole and pimple drive me nuts and of course the kids with their sensitive antennae become unnerved as well! Mine was in January, whew, done. Til next year!wakeupandwritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04609907178978468802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7403335925917427902.post-941429812529146062016-03-09T20:53:19.844-05:002016-03-09T20:53:19.844-05:00This is so interesting to me as a coach.

Maybe it came from traveling into other teachers' classrooms for my first two years of teaching, but I have never minded being watched!JenniferMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603450967368808356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7403335925917427902.post-33337120944761304622016-03-09T20:04:16.539-05:002016-03-09T20:04:16.539-05:00I have to echo Glenda.

BUT-sorry for your day. Hope you can have a nice evening with little hoopla and maybe a hot bath! Chocolate too!

It's a dog and pony show. People who know little about what we do, who often have credentials that don't match ours, who have a political appointment descend and render judgment. The whole school has been jumping through hoops, and I'm on the list of classes to visit.
