Reachable Moments: a Unique Perspective from the Desk of a Teacher

Reachable Moments is a collection of narratives about various experiences of a middle school teacher. Most of us will identify with the parent who has been called into the principal's office to hear about what his or her child has done. Some of us will identify with being on the other side of that desk, trying to defend their disciplinary actions after the student misbehaved. This book has moments that are funny, touching, sad, and thought provoking. Adventures range from a haunted classroom to a field trip down a narrow creek or a Kentucky theme park. The reachable moments come when a teacher connects with his or her student and creates a moment of personal connection and learning.
