We have had the same thoughts, but that is where it stopped. A thought.<br /><br />I've been on both sides of that student's desk. As a student at Burnet Elementary School, Baytown Jr High, and graduating from Lee High School, certain behavior was instilled, in the students. There wasn't a gray area. There were consequences, if not at school, then at home, and sometimes both. As a whole, I think because we knew the expectations, we not only survived, we reached, and climbed for bigger goals.<br /><br />As an elementary school teacher, 21 of 29 years in G.C.C.I.S.D., I was a better teacher remembering how my students felt, sitting in that desk. I remembered the teachers that made a great difference, those are the ones I aligned my teaching. The others, I made sure I was nothing like them.<br /><br />As for the difference between then and now, I think it deals with the deciding factors to decisions and actions. Consequences are harder felt, by all, when there are no expectations.<br />Robin HerringAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304841.post-28077633030103979542015-05-01T14:12:14.510-05:002015-05-01T14:12:14.510-05:00Another interesting read Bert.
