Hey Plain Jane

Tell you folks, it’s harder than it looks….

jackshoosIt’s been a furious four months, up and down that highway to school and back twice a day. 46 kilometers all up for the two trips daily there and back. The road gets no easier. The drivers get no less tetchy and idiotic. I am no less aware of taking my life to the edge every time I drive it. In short I loathe the task. I find prayer helps.

Jack’s made heaps of new school buds, won an award for “being a good friend”, and he seems okay with the whole school gig. I, however, have learnt that a good teacher is a rare find, how hard it can be to keep the attention of a group of five year olds let alone teach them. 
Jack’s teacher is a wonderful woman; plain spoken, calm, decisive, warm but not effusive.  She is every bit the type of bookish and wise owl type one always hopes will teach your children. On occasion I have helped out in the class. They encourage parents to do this, perhaps to instill in us the true and correct understanding that teaching five year olds is a real art. My stints as volunteer teacher’s aide have been fraught events. Kids are great but on masse they form mini tsunamis.
