Today was one of those days. One of the days when no one listens. One of those days where you feel alone and isolated. 
Teacher mental health. Can we talk about it? Please. It's the mental load. The paper work I get. Proving you are worth employing by documenting everything you do is something I have experience with.  My mental load is the 110 kids who all learn in different ways. They need think time and wait time. They need work time.  They need support and modifications. 

They deserve the best and I know everyone is working hard to give them what they need but 13 is hard. So hard. 
I need A A  Milne and so do they.
