Once a teacher always a teacher The first semester of schools is marching to the music as the months turn from fall to the approach of cold weather and the ending of this year of 2011. Recent- ly I have been squeezing in some news letters, some children's and teacher's books. It seems that I have that tendency to discuss various education experiences or books with other adults, often using that old fashioned teachers tone and description of the meaning and the words of a book or an action. I have spent most of this week sorting through my many years of collecting teaching materials and documents. They are items that I used and re-used as I worked in the world of teaching. The many boxes and cupboards holding such work packets represent the collector I have been throughout the years. The fact is that I have used many items for every year spent teaching in the past forty plus years. Recently I spent some time read- ing excerpts from the DKG NEWS. Dr. Jensi P. Souders, the 1010-1012 international president of the Delta Kappa Gamma Society Internation- al. Souders, stated that "we need to tell our stories, about students and teachers we have had and how they influenced our lives, and we, theirs. Pride in our profession and in our personal careers as educators… those are the stories that are sent to me via emails or letters." The sharing of either teaching or learning education is a priority for teachers and students alike. Our present educational system is chal- lenged with the current change in the economy. Principals, Teachers, materials, income, use of school busses, salaries for school employ- ees plus many other requirements are challenged monetarily. Our own Tehama Coun- ty Department of Educa- tion continues to provide a parent handbook for par- ents whose children attend schools in Tehama County. Each book presents compo- nents for each level of school a child who is in grades K-12. The use of this handbook is to be used as a guide for a child's edu- cation. As a teacher or a parent, the handbook pre- sents the multiple areas of learning to be used as a base for each of the age levels in education needed for child's growth. Having been on the first Tehama County meeting addressing an appropriate resource for preschool aged children and their learning needs led by Don Corrie, I have continued to read each Learning Foundations resource book based on Preschool and beyond. Some very important changes have been adjusted and clarified over the years. As the information was brought to the attention of the current needs of our children year by year, Tehama County Depart- ment of Education now has excep- tional guides for the educational learning needed by our children. What started out as a recognized need has become an excellent guide for parents as their child enters the first days in school. Parents and Teachers working together as a team can share the progress and the needs of a child's growth and development. They can work together to provide useful insights into developmental mile- stones at home and at school. Carolyn Barber The dedicated assis- tance and guidance by Teachers and Parents can contribute guides for learning that is worth its weight in gold in build- ing the positive progress of a child. Yes, I have talked a lot about children learn- ing, it never seems to vacate my thoughts. I did not always know about the importance of their learning experi- ences nor did I know quite how to help them. I was rather timid as a young mother who thought she needed more learning before she could help her own children and others to learn. Once I myself began to attend college I began to recognize that guidance in learning is very important to people of all ages. "…listening is one of the most important things we can do for one another. Whether the other is an adult or a child, our …listening to who that person is can often be our greatest gift. Whether that person is speaking or playing or dancing, building or singing or painting, if we care, we can listen." — Fred Roger Carolyn Barber has been writing her column in the Daily News since 1992.
