and post notes and photos about your poem like Janice Canerdy.
At age 22, fresh out of college, I was teaching kids just a few years younger than I was. I probably
did learn as much as I taught that first year. I wasn't cocky like the teacher mentioned in my first two lines.
New teacher hopes to impart
a fraction of what she knows.
In June, she hopes she taught half
as much as she learned.
