Recap #2: The RtI

It's early morning, but no I'm not at work.  I'm at the university learning about something called RtI or, in layman's terms, Response to Intervention.  I try to listen with an open heart, but over and over again I feel annoyance and even anxiety. The speaker is sharing stuff that I know about already. With no preparation I could stand up and give her talk. It's super basic stuff for anyone who teaches in this great state of ours.  On top of that, Speaker keeps adding comments like, "It's okay if you don't understand.  I'm here to help."  I start thinking of ways to kill myself, but what would be the point really?  I decide to ignore Speaker and just think about my own thoughts. A long day, but it's over.  And I lived to tell the recap.
