An Experience at Wal-Mart

This past weekend, I took part in the Teacher Work Program with Crayola and Wal-Mart. As a teacher, I was there to help parents answer questions about the school supplies their were purchasing. Was it crazy. I realize why I don't shop on the tax free weekends. Saturday was a mad house and saw several of you there. Sunday wasn't as bad as Saturday, thank goodness. It was an experience that was useful to see the pain that parents go through when buying supplies and they don't understand what to buy on the supply list. I realize as a teacher that I need to keep the supply list simple and very specific. I hope that everyone got everything they needed and are ready for school. See you on Monday, August 18th.
