I guess I would call this blog 'Teaching for Cookies!" because Teaching involves a lot of things that I worry about doing correctly, from classroom management to lesson planning, to not crushing creative minds, to preventing bullying and not becoming a bully myself.  So, it's partly an attempt to lighten the mood and partly an attempt to remind myself of the things I look forward to in teaching.  Seeing children get excited about learning and making it their own, finding someone else who is also excited about learning, and growing a friendship from it.  Doing things besides the five-question section review every week, and feeling the subject come alive and be something that a student will remember the rest of their lives.  These are the 'cookies' of teaching: the little bit of sweetness in your day.
