I can't wait to be done with this!!

I think the approach I need to take in teaching Africa is to first consult the NY curriculum and plan this lesson as if these are my own students. I need to do this for the kids and not for these demanding impossible to please co-teachers. They will criticize anything I do, especially if it is good because it threatens their establishment. I am free to be successful or suck because the same result of harsh criticism will result in either. There is comfort in knowing that this will come to an end, and I can say that I have successfully collaborated with some difficult people. Yay, just what I wanted. I need to get off this pity train, suck it up, woman-up, and do this. I will check back in later.
