In Honor of Teachers

We think of teaching as a profession
   though winning teachers do not profess

Each and every student they do reach
   and that is why they call them ‘Teach’

And now a terrible teacher shortage. As a teacher of 20 years myself, I appreciated this poem. ABC 123 Will you share your blocks with me? Too many workbooks and ditto sheets these days. I call it Paper Plate Panda Learning. Children are not given opportunities to think anymore. Your poems always motivate me, make me happy, and make me think creatively. They are so wonderful to read. I had such a good evening with them tonight. Merci.

Very nice words, Gershon honoring teachers ! Only if they reach the hearts of their students, they can be effective as teachers...! As a teacher, I feel honored.
