Ring! Ring! Ring! It was early in the morning. Though I knew who was calling, I   1    reached for the telephone. I was a new supply instructor struggling to support my young family. Each morning I waited for a(n) call that would take me to a different   2   that day. The last three of them had all been intended to   3   the teacher and see just how much bad   4  he/she could deal with. I had responded by being   5   and angry with the students. I didn’t really want to go to work that morning then, especially since it was my   6  .
Still, I answered the phone and took the job. My family needed the money and I couldn’t afford to be   7  . As I was driving to work, however, I decided that I was going to   8   again to be the best teacher I could be.   9   school started, the students treated me as their former teachers and once again were ready to see what they could   10  . This time,though, I was still firm but   11   with them. I did my best to make the lessons fun. I shared smiles,   12   their hard work, and encouraged their efforts. The effect was amazing. My uncontrollable classroom was soon   13  . Students were laughing and learning and I finally felt like I was doing my job   14  . I went home happily and enjoyed the rest of my birthday with my family.
