Some of you know how hard I worked last year to reach particular students. Many of "my kids" had family lives that were less than desirable and suffered from low self-esteem and buried anger issues. Today two of my most challenging students stopped in to say hello and tell me about their summer. They didn't stay long and they didn't say much, but the fact that they bothered to stop in at all let me know that they recognized my efforts and reciprocate my feelings of affection. It made my day to have such obvious proof that I made a difference to them. I can't wait to see how they do as 5th graders.
