Shannon Reed did not want to be a teacher, but now, after twenty years of working with children from preschool to college, there's nothing she'd rather be. In essays full of humor, heart, and wit, she illuminates the highs and lows of a job located at the intersection of youth and wisdom. Bringing you into the trenches of this most important and stressful career, she rolls her eyes at ineffectual administrators, weeps with her students when they experience personal tragedies, complains with her colleagues about their ridiculously short lunchbreaks, and presents the parent-teacher conference from the other side of the tiny table. From dealing with bullies and working with special needs students to explaining the unwritten rules of the teacher's lounge, Why Did I Get a B? is full of as much humor and heart as the job itself"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Reed, Shannon. 600 10 $a Reed, Shannon $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Teachers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Teaching $z United States $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Teaching $z United States $v Humor. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Anecdotes. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Humor. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 941 $a 16 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626020451.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409035200.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518024547.0 952 $l ZUPD675 $d 20211012011402.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722063442.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20210701010749.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20210302015347.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20201203010718.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20201016011208.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20200922010151.0 952 $l WFPC115 $d 20200917162515.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20200903013402.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200902012409.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20200805012640.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20200730011036.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200724010203.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F53DC6A2CD7211EABC1FA90E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
