| Changed my mind. I don't want to go to school. |
I think we all learn something new each
day. I know I do. Whether I substitute teach in grammar school
or high school, I’m learning how to control each mix of students, how Mrs.
Jones performs the daily tasks, or how to present geometry word problems to the
class. Life is a learning journey.
I’ve been writing about my
adventures in substitute teaching where I have to ad lib intelligence in all
disciplines. It’s like being on stage
without a script. I still expect to
share a few humorous anecdotes while substituting, but I’d like to share my
education journey through college as a non-traditional student—as a Mom with
five children in tow.
I’d also like to share my
experiences in learning how to write memoir using these college adventures as
the foundation for a book. I’m signed up
for a course, “Write Your Memoir in Six Months.” It begins in January. And I’m just as scared as I was when I began
college as a non-traditional student. My
twins, my babies, were in second grade at that time, my son was in fifth grade,
another daughter was in seventh and my oldest, who has learning disabilities,
was in eighth.
Come; join me on my journey into
writing memoir. Please offer your advice
and support. Pray I have the courage to
complete the task in front of me. Thanks
for stopping by my new Adventures in Writing blog. Please stop by again. ~ Victoria Marie Lees
