[LIT] Anxiety Dreams Return Early

[khonyx at aol.com]

I've had the one where I'm racing to catch the bus... and I don't even take a bus.? The classroom control one is also very familiar!:)



Why do you think these are starting so early?

Already had a "Return to School" anxiety dream and I still have a
month before school starts! Mine always seems to focus on a couple of things
1. Running late and/or leaving the class alone
2. Inability to get control of the class. ( alternative dream: No one seemed
to see or hear me)
3. A classroom bursting at the seams with students, every time one leaves 2
would push themselves through the door.


And the one I will never forget but I have only had once, Thank
God! Huddling completely naked behind my desk and demanding the kids leave
only to have them laugh and point.
Analyze that one!

I have talked to many teachers who suffer this malady. Can anyone else beat
the huddling behind the desk one?
