Update: July 8th: The blog, My Last Year, has been deleted. My book about my final year as a public teacher, along with memory flashbacks, is on Amazon.com, but can be downloaded for a nominal fee at https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Bag-Face-Teacher
Notice, I'm wearing a bag to cover my face, since this book is very controversial. The public doesn't want to know the truth. Our educational system is crumbling and can't repair itself. I should know! I taught for 40 years as a public school teacher and survived!
A little bit of this and a little bit of that..don't expect me to take off my bag...check out the BAG FACE TEACHER BLOG....
Additional Update: Working on new book: A Teacher With Three Special Needs Children...coming soon...
Introduction...
I remember as a child sitting on my parents' back porch. It was the best thinking place in the world! The porch was always shady because of a huge mulberry tree. Sometimes, I would climb that tree and feel as though I could touch the bright, blue sky.
As I pondered over any problem that I was experiencing, I would remember what Mother always told me," Whenever a door closes, find an open window." Of course, as a child I did not quite understand what she meant. As an adult, I live by those words.
Open Window Books offers short books that provide answers to those interested in understanding children's hidden disabilities, such as neurological disorders (autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), visual processing disorders and central auditory processing disorders.
I plan to include other topics of interest.
As the CEO of Open Window Books, it is a privilege to offer these books based on my own personal experience as one understanding and dealing with hidden disabilities.
