Hahahaha.... how about somehwere int he middle?
Wow! Congratulations littlek - I think this is great. Those kids will be lucky to have you.
My brother went back and got a masters in education (he was 45 at the time) and is teaching his second year of 5th grade.
Malleable, of course, means they can be hammered into shape.
Mac - good for him! What did he do before?
Roger - hammer: check!
whip: check
chair: check
gun: check

He has a bachelor's in journalism and worked as a press secretary for a while, then did PR for non-profit organizations. But he loves kids - always volunteered to tutor and be a mentor and such. I wish he'd done this sooner.
Roger - I think they put metle detectors in skools now.
Mac - sounds like an all-around good guy! Better late than never (I should be telling myself).
mi dad wes an edumacator littlek for many many many years.
congrats!
Wonderful news, littlek. I bet you're thrilled.
Having been married to a teacher for god knows how many years, and having socialised with many hundreds of them, I can now confirm that they all love red wine, drink bucket loads of the stuff whilst telling bawdy jokes, and are expert when it comes to a spot of the old caning in the bedroom.
So, not only are you joining an honourable profession, you will eventually become a strict but drunk disciplinarian who is quite adept when it comes to the usage of thrashing implements.
Therefore, when it comes the time that you are looking for a husband, I would suggest that you go for an Englishman.
Good luck.

The biggest joy to be found in educating; is, that moment when a student finally understands something which up until then they were completely at sea about. I am sure you will have many of those moments, I know I had mine.
Congratulations all over again.
Directedness: is it a problem?
Uh, littlek....I have a confession.
I had my first crush in 5th grade, and kids are growing up faster today than 40 years ago. I think you can expect a few crushes from your students. Try not to break their hearts, okay?
Thanks everyone!!!
Lordie - the problem with englishmen is that I can't understand a word they're saying.
Eva - I had a cruch on someone in 6th grade, but it was a fellow student.
I've only ever had a woman put her cruch on me the once.
Frightened the life out of me.
hahahaha..... I have got to watch for typos.
