As I was looking through some other blogs I ran across this wonderful post written by Dr. Kylene Beers, a Heinemann author and former president of NCTE. The post was titled"Why I Hated Meredith's First Grade Teacher:An Open Letter to America's Teachers." I was taken back at first and went in thinking it would slam teachers. Well after reading the post I can tell you I was moved to tears. I hope you will take the time to read it if you are a parent or teacher or both. It was a good portrait of the role teachers play in children's lives as well as the overwhelming emotions parents have sharing they most precious gifts with the world.
