Bu...Annie, I know what you went through. Boo PACT.<br /><br />But, look where we are now. We've just about made it, bro. We just need to keep going, keep staying positive, and just have faith in our own abilities - something my supervisor said I need to work on myself.<br /><br />We're all capable of failure, just as we are all capable of success.JBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8551944680296535987.post-68370520749051766652012-06-20T19:52:06.534-07:002012-06-20T19:52:06.534-07:00Hi Annie,
Thanks for sharing your story/advice. ...Hi Annie,<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your story/advice. I think we all expect perfection from ourselves as teachers and to make mistakes can seem like the end of the world. It was nice to see how you took what could have been a deal breaker and made it into an opportunity to work hard and prove your worth as the amazing teacher I'm sure you are. It sounds like you came out stronger and more resilient because of it. I too have experienced defeat and failure over the course of this program. I will try to remember your advice in my inevitable future failed endeavors. As teachers we are continually growing, with reflection as are best friend in the process! :) <br /><br />-Ali KayattaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8551944680296535987.post-5424271962201719722012-06-20T14:28:58.200-07:002012-06-20T14:28:58.200-07:00Annie, you are incredible.

I know you were stressed with doing the whole process a second time, but I knew you could do it. <br />I know it was tough since it was the end of the year, and it's harder to get kids to pay attention and do what you want. I'm so proud of you and your students for getting through PACT a second time. Great job, I know all your hard work was worth it. I'm glad you can look back on this and see it as a growing/learning experience.Marinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8551944680296535987.post-74780143023114406802012-06-20T14:03:03.909-07:002012-06-20T14:03:03.909-07:00I'm so impressed with your perseverance and ha...I'm so impressed with your perseverance and hard work, Annie. I think that's probably one of the most valuable pieces of advice you could pass on to others and to me, too. This is something that I also struggled with this year. Failure, of course, is not something that any of us want to experience, but I think that I learned the most from the days that totally failed from my perspective, days that I cried, days that I had to rework a lesson plan between first and third, and days that I felt like I did something (or many things) wrong. Now you know you CAN do anything! Congrats. :)Sophienoreply@blogger.com
