I met my students tonight! Tonight was supply drop-off night, and parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and students took the opportunity to come and meet the teacher.
After my two weeks of training and manuals, the statistics and theories suddenly became real children, children with shiny black hair and brown eyes. The little girls peered from their mothers blouses and blushed when I commented on their pretty names. The boys masked their nervousness in baggy pants and brusque focus, but they grinned shyly when I spoke to them.
