I realized we didnt even pay that much time in class, we would always go to music class, the library etc so overall we were with the teacher for a couple hrs and i like the fact that ele. school gets out so early, like around 2pm, thats what makes me think i want to be one cause i know for sure i would stress out so much if i had to go home so late and not be with my babies, etc. And i also like the summers off thing. Im really thinking about it but i dunno. I was thinking maybe a 1st grade teacher cause the older kids would surely annoy me. They are too smart at that age and talk back lol This is the article: Article | The Teacher-Pay Myth
but i dont know anyone who is actually a teacher so... |
summers aren't always "off". My mom was always getting ready for the next year- especially if it was a new grade- she had to learn the new cirriculum and she was always taking summer school courses to stay caught up on what was new and get more qualifications. Just something to think about.
