My First Year Teaching
"What are you doing out of class Melanie?" "Mrs. Anderson, my water broke!" So if this sounds crazy, it was. My first year as a teacher was anything but traditional. I had just graduated from college with my teaching certificate when I landed my first teaching job. It was at an all girls alternative school called the Teenage Mothers' School or TAMS for short. My students ranged in ages from 14 to 18 where I taught Freshmen English through Senior English. What a year it was! Besides just graduating from college, I had also just gotten married and now had to prepare four different lesson plans. My poor husband was lucky to see me before sundown most days. Still I had so much fun with my students. We all cried, laughed and learned together. The lessons went beyond English Language Arts and literature. I always used humor to lighten the mood and break the ice. So one April Fool's Day, I decided to play a joke on my students. However, little did I know that the joke would be on me.
