Autumn School Days
Welcome to Tuesday 4 which we keep up in memory of Toni Taddeo.
School days help to shape our future personality.
1. Share a story of your school days that you think may have helped shape who you are today.
1. Share a story of your school days that you think may have helped shape who you are today.
My dad was a football coach at our high school, so football was very important to me. I still
get excited for football games at school and I love to watch professional football also. I was also a cheerleader. I am not sure school formed my long term personality much. It seems like I
completely changed when I started going to church and that was when I was 25 or so.
I would say God formed my personality more. I will say my dad being a teacher probably had something to do with me wanting to become a teacher, but even that had a lot to do with my son Josh. That is another story.
2. Did you have a favorite teacher and what made them special to you? My dad was my favorite
teacher. He was a great teacher and he was my dad, so I really enjoyed him.
3. Did you enjoy the rituals of school.. new clothing, pencils, notebooks, etc.? I never have enjoyed shopping, but back to school supplies were fun. I loved getting those for Josh too. We would make a game of it. Get the ads and go to all of the different stores to get the best deals. We would shop in Oklahoma when we would visit my Granie and she and my mom would go too. It was so much fun and he loved it. We got his school clothes in Oklahoma too.
4. Did you walk to school or ride the bus? Do you have a story to share on that? I walked some when I was in Jr. High, the school was close. My dad took me to school some...and I also rode the bus some. My boyfriend David brought me home some too when we dated in high school. I also drove myself in high school.
I can relate to how you felt about your dad. We were lucky and had good dads that encouraged us. I didn't have to ride a school bus, but I did like going on them for special events/field trips. Does Josh still go to school? Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your answers today.

I think it would have been fun to have a parent teach in the same school!
