I talked with my mentee and have given her advice that I was given and learned on my own. There is a book that hits the nail on the head...."Don't Sweat the Small Stuff"!!! This is so true in the glamerous world of public education. It is easy to get covered up with paperwork (especially in Special Ed) i.e. BIP's, IEPs, FBAs, and all those other 3 lettered things. I also shared the ins/outs, routines, etc of the school during pre-planning. Luckily my mentee is in my own department and has caught on very quickly and is a great teacher. We meet weekly to "vent" which is another thing that we set up, because I told her that if you don't it will carry over into personal aspects of your life...which sucks!
And in the words of the great Porky Pig.....That's all Folks!
