There's a Place Where I Can Go...

Despite the never ending work and the various pressures and stressors that are located there, my classroom is my favorite place to be. I love going there on the weekends. It is actually relaxing to me to just sit in my room, with some music playing (Nora Jones and Rage Against the Machine today), correcting papers or planning the next week. I like looking around and making sure that everything is in order before I leave. I like entering in the morning and finding everything just the way I left it. I like knowing that my room is a place that is safe, clean, and encouraging to my students. There's no where I would rather spend my working hours than...In My Room.
