 I am an ITRT and I will admit that I do not have the stress of classroom teachers. However, lately I have wondered about going back into the classroom. I love teaching and it is lessons like what went on during 3rd grade computer lab today that make me realize how much I love teaching! We did a circle Thinking Map on what we do at school. Next time the kids are with me we will turn the circle maps into flow maps. Now as an ITRT I am not supposed to be the computer lab teacher but just like Scarlet O’Hara never felt like she belonged unless she was at Tara, I feel like my place in in the classroom. Every year the tug to go back into classroom teaching gets stronger. I wonder if this year will be the year I succumb?
