The 175th Carnival of Education is up at Mister Teacher’s Learn Me Good.
Let’s all wish him luck on Whatta Ya Think? and, in a show of educator-solidarity that would make a teachers union proud, peep my review of Mister Teacher’s Learn Me Good, an account of his trials in elementary education that is both hilarious and touching.
And speaking of those unions, take a look at the post I would have submitted to the Carnival had storms not knocked out my internet service for the last 36 hours: Say No to Child Labor!
Then check out TweenTeacher’s take on The Seventh Affliction, which is one of the less palatable facets of a teacher’s job.
Also, A Bundle of Contradictions discusses high achievers in a good read. My classroom enrichment was excellent until the 4th grade. Then it all stopped and I had to find it at home or on my own.
Thank God for that, and thank God for an autodidactic family tradition.
