I've come to the conclusion

[serafina20]

I should be teaching 4th grade. I went to the library and checked out a bunch of books. After I did, I noticed the library had helpfully coded the suggested grade level on them and all my books are either fourth or fifth grade.

I'm also kind of thinking again about maybe becoming a librarian. I could either be a teacher-librarian, so I could work in schools, or a "regular" librarian, except I'd want to be a children's librarian. But a) I don't know and b) I don't know if I'd have time and c)... what if I fail.

I should probably talk to my sister since she's already in the program, huh?

I'll stick with first this year, but I'll think about maybe requesting fourth next. Maybe.

I'm a retired librarian. I worked in a library for 20 years then got my MLS and finished after a 40 year career as Library Director. Unless the program has changed drastically there is no way you would fail. I had been out of school for 20 years and I did fine. If you think you would enjoy it, and can find a program, I would encourage you to do it. Being a librarian is great. I was a law librarian, but my absolutely favorite classes were the children's classes, pre-school, K-6, 6-12 all have incredible books that most people aren't aware of. Plus, librarians ROCK! Whatever you choose, good luck.
