A Terrible Magician


After school Friday, a few students came to my room to submit last minute homework and made up quizzes. Somehow, they got me doing a couple of magic tricks with a deck of cards to entertain them. I know a good magician never reveals or repeats their tricks. Thus, I initially regretted repeating a few tricks and teaching the kids how to perform the tricks. Only later did I realize that, at the core, I am a teacher. I am not a magician. I did what my instincts led me to do. I did what I've practiced and prepared each day to do. I taught the kids magic.
