Every Teacher Should Read for a Smile

I was cleaning out some old college files this weekend and I came across an old copy of this poem, given to me by a professor I had in undergrad. It made me smile and I thought it might make some of my blog friends smile too! Since the version I had was old and wrinkled, I retyped it to make it cute enough to hang up by your desk or in your classroom somewhere. If you’d like to download a PDF of it you can click right on the poem.
