Sunday's class 11/9

I truly enjoyed the presentations today. I really enjoyed the mentoring presentation and how many new teachers really don't get the support needed to make the first year a success. I also enjoyed the slam poetry video. Great job on the professional development presentation. I can't stand professional development because it seems very worthless. There really wasn't a focus and I always felt that it was planned at the last minute and since they were getting money for the speaker, teachers had to go. Professional development is like a boring preacher at the pulpit. You want something to take home to inspire but usually you don't. Will
