When teacher in her class doesn't need anything, I go to daughters classroom (she teaches 3rd grade there) and see what she needs. Between the two, I'm busy from 8-4.
Even if its just sitting with a troublesome student, or helping one with math they don't understand, or what a complete sentence is and why you can't start a sentence with the word "And", or listening to someone read.......I"m an extra pair of hands and eyes.
I love every second......but I come home exhausted, my legs are killing me (remember I'm OLD) and guess who has dinner ready? If not ready, there is something out that is easy to cook and eat.....
Volunteering: an addictive form of getting high.

Glad you're still with us DG! Maybe you could introduce the students to MR? Then posting would be part of your duties!
Having fun is what counts! Helping others - especially with reading - is so important too. Don't forget where we live!
