Damaris and Kermit: In the District. Anthologies of a new teacher at the nation's capital. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. 85 hours. and counting. And this may be why. Today I walked into my classroom and every single dry-erase marker had been stolen. I borrowed some from next door, which didn't really work either. By 4th period, might as well have had a white dry erase marker on a white dry erase board. Why did this happen? Because the lock to my classroom is broken. It doesn't lock. Greg decided to return dur...

Damaris and Kermit: In the District. Anthologies of a new teacher at the nation's capital. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. I love them. It's the first time I say that. Today Travon, who is CONSISTENTLY getting suspended and who was recently released from Juvi, actually came to class, didn't walk out, made an effort to complete the work, and even stayed after class for me to ask him more questions to make sure he learned the day's objective. You don't understand - this is NOT normal of this student. Only this...

Damaris and Kermit: In the District. Anthologies of a new teacher at the nation's capital. Tuesday, March 9, 2010. God is so good. This is by far the hardest job I have ever had. But this is also the job that has given me the privilege of being involved in the lives of so many people - so many humans, every single day, every single hour. I am terribly exhausted. Physically, and mentally. And I still have work to do. But they are worth it. They are so worth it. Otherwise I wouldn't be here. God is so good.

Damaris and Kermit: In the District. Anthologies of a new teacher at the nation's capital. Wednesday, February 17, 2010. Today Tyrone was honest with me. I think that was a first: “Yes YOU expect me to read but I don’t expect myself to read . but I do appreciate your expectation.” And proceeded to complete all of his work. Today Stephen spelled the word “paid” as “payed.”. Shakeda just didn’t know what the word “profit” was. And neither did India or Roberta. 8221; Darius has been suspended numerous times...

Damaris and Kermit: In the District. Anthologies of a new teacher at the nation's capital. Friday, May 23, 2008. First of all, I am definately not in Mexico City anymore. Anyways, Particularly after LA TERM, globalization and me were not good friends. As a matter of fact, I would call it enemies. I hated it. how it destroyed natural communities and created them all replicas of the US. But, my heart is in the process of making ammends. Dont get me wrong, i like the fact that i am staying where I am. b...
