Found this video of Taylor Mali, slam poet, teacher, voiceover artist, reading his poem entitled "What Teachers Make." Pretty sharp, strong, this slam poem is now at the level of the iconic. Nice to listen to, though, especially in these times when budgets are tight and some people wonder what we even do with our 180 days of work a year.

Funny, almost preachy though...
I make a comfortable sigh when I sleep late during February recess...I make a big breakfast, a large pot of coffee and then maybe I make it to the crossword page by noon on every snow day...
So be jealous of all I'll make today, and I promise to continue to make a difference come Monday!
That's my defense.
