Abstract:

North Carolina Teacher of the Year Cindi Rigsbee keeps a blog of her experience as an ELA teacher in a rural middle school. Read about her experiences navigating the choppy seas of standardized testing, unpredictable adolescents and their seemingly-innocent dances. Rigsbee offers a good mix of daily--and highly comic--classroom life and reflection on the broader context of the teaching profession. "Every student is someone's dream come true," she says in her first-day-of-school speech. Hence her nickname, "the dream teacher."
