The sixth in a series of stories about my experiences as a classroom teacher. A school classroom is a hub of human activity. Shutting it down is never as easy as most people would have you believe.

The fourth in a series of stories about my experiences in an elementary classroom during my 20+ year career. "Cheers" is the story of a mother of one of my pupils who fell in love with me and became my stalker. Sad and disturbing tale of mental illness, loneliness and loss.

This is the third in a series of "Teacher Stories" based on my 23 year career as a professional educator. This particular story revolves around how Fatherhood has made me a better teacher and how Love helps make children into better readers. Hope you like it.

"Hana's Suitcase" is the award-winning book by author, Karen Levine. It chronicles the story of the Brady Family who were caught up in the Holocaust during WWII and with, Fumiko, a Japanese teacher who discovers a Holocauts-era suitcase with the name, Hanna" on it in the 1990s and begins a quest to uncover exactly who this little girl, "Hanna/Hana" actually was. My "Hana's Suitcase" story recounts my treasured experience helping one of my students read this book and discover, for herself, exactly who Hana was, too, just as Fumiko had done. There is a surprise twist at the end of this story which helps to make it one of my favourite teaching memories of all time. "My Hana's Suitcase Story" is the second in a collection of "Teacher" stories culled from experiences I've had in and out of the classroom during my 23 year teaching career.

The first in a collection of stories based upon my experiences as an elementary school teacher in Ontario, Canada. This story involves some of the funny things kids manage to say with a straight face!
