Seriously. This is my tenth year, but my first in Jr. High and I am beyond exhausted, like I don't even want to read exhausted. Thirteen year olds are seriously cray-cray. Lord help me. #TeachersOfLitsy #INeedABigKidJuiceBox
[DELETED] 3803335244 This is my 10th year homeschooling my own kiddos so I laughed when I saw this, because I feel like this teaching 5 different grade levels! Lol 😂 7y
AndreaReads @ForeverNerdy Oh man! That is crazy! Homeschooling is definitely quite a job and doesn't always get the credit it deserves! 7y
britt_brooke Thank you for doing what you do!! 💚 7y

Purrfectpages I feel your pain! I'm only in classroom setup/staff development and I already feel like that pic! 7y
Booksnob I'm exhausted too and it's in my day 4 tomorrow. I just hate the never ending stress and todo lists. I never feel caught up ever! I'm in the start of my 24 th year. 7y
EmilyM I'm right there with you! And tomorrow is Open House.....☹️ 7y
alvingregorio More power to you for working with middle schoolers. I can work with elementary and high schoolers. But those middlers...Drive me up the wall 7y
MrBook Lol! 7y
Sace I feel all the pain of this post and the comments. I've been teaching 20+ years and I still can't get over the non stop pace. But lord I couldn't do middle school. Everyone who teaches that grade level is a saint. 7y
AndreaReads Thank you everyone for your kind words! It is three days in, and I'm feeling better? Maybe? I feel like I'm not daydreaming about working somewhere else and/or in an entirely new profession as much today, so there's hope that this will be a good year! We can do it! @britt_brooke @moarbookspleaze @EllieDottie @Purrfectpages @Booksnob @EmilyM @alvingregorio @MrBook @RestlessFickleBookSlut 7y
MrBook You're so awesome. You can make anything work. 😎👍🏻🙌🏻 7y
SheilaChew Middle schoolers are a hot mess, but if you can remember what it's like to be there, and be grateful you survived, you can find a way to love their hot mess status. Then you will love your job every day! 💕 7y

AndreaReads @SheilaChew This article! 😍 7y
kspenmoll Middle school is tough with all the social/ emotional issues. I teach in hs school now & it amazes me every year how students do grow into caring you g adults by senior year. Be good to yourself! (edited) 7y
JaclynW Teachers are amazing! Middle school teachers are saintly. This age group needs caring, intelligent, relatable and talented teachers. You will be so good for them! I wish you all the best this year! 7y
