APOLOGY TO NONE 
 
When I am introduced as a teacher, I am usually asked what I 
teach.
 When I say, "first grade", I generally hear a very flat  "oh".
 I have never been certain whether it is an expression of pity, sympathy, 
disgust, or perhaps disinterest. Always, I wish I had the time to 
explain to them like this:
 YES, I teach first grade.
 WHERE ELSE would a handsome young man 
put his arms around me and ask"Do you know that I'll always remember and love
you?"
 WHERE ELSE could I tie so many hair ribbons and belts and daily get 
to see a style show of pretty dresses and shirts?
 WHERE ELSE could I walk up and down aisles and have little warm hands 
reach out to me?
 WHERE ELSE could I have the privilege of wiggling loose teeth and 
receive the promise that I may pull them when they are loose enough and 
sometimes I  do.
 WHERE ELSE would I eat a spoiled piece of candy from a grimy little hand 
and not become ill? (I have to eat it because he watches me to see that I 
do!)
 WHERE ELSE would the future look so bright as it does amid an energetic
group to whom nothing is impossible? 
 WHERE ELSE could I guide the first letter formations of a chubby little 
hand that may some day write a book or an important document?
 WHERE ELSE could I forget my own aches and pains because of so 
many cut fingers,scratched knees, bumped heads and broken hearts that need 
care? 
 WHERE ELSE could I forget cares and even "the state of the nation" 
because Stevie isn't grasping Reading as he should and other methods must be 
tried?
 WHERE ELSE would my mind have to stay so young as with a group 
whose attention  span is so short that I  must always keep a "bag of 
tricks" up my sleeve?
 WHERE ELSE could I feel so close to my MAKER as I do each 
year when, because of something I've done, little children learn to read?
 YES,I teach first grade, Mr. and Mrs. America, and I LOVE IT!
