In the 1950s, the author was a college student working toward a degree in education, looking forward to beginning a career in teaching. To allay expenses in completing her degree, she accepted a position as a teacher in a remote area where it was difficult to place teachers with a degree. Here she learned the true meaning of dedication and the need for good teachers. She completed her education and spent thirty-six years in the classroom. Upon retiring, she published two cookbooks and continued her love for cooking, writing, spending time with family and friends, and planning her next project. Her love for teaching and her memories of the many children whose lives she touched resulted in this book where she could share stories that were such a big part of her adult life.
عن المؤلف
This is an amazing journey of a thirty-six year teaching career, beginning in a one room school on a mountain in Appalachia in the mid-fifties, and ending in a suburban school in a large Florida city. Along the way, the author will keep you entertained with anecdotes of children from varied cultures and different eras. Some stories will have you laughing , while others will bring tears to your eyes. It is obvious that society has changed in many ways during this time frame and definitely is reflected in the classroom, but the fact that the writer hopes to instill in this book, is that children
are basically the same. They react in like manner to most situations, but there is one huge difference in the students of today and the kids of earlier decades. Technology has changed the way that teachers teach, and the way that students learn. The students in this book had not been introduced to computers, cell phones, Ipads or other technological tools that are taken for granted in the classrooms of today. Throughout this book, it becomes evident that the writer enjoyed her profession and cared deeply for her students.
