Teacher - 2 good days; Students - 2 bad days; Toss up - 1 day. I think this kind of record is called a draw. So what makes a good day? Happy teacher, happy students, good work. I am not sure in what universe that scenario occurs, but it is not mine. In my reality a good day is when I spend more time teaching than disciplining squirrely students. These squirrely students are making me nuts!!!!!! Perhaps I am an almond or pecan, I don't know but sometimes at the end of day, I do feel like I have been cracked!!!!
One of the reasons I had 2 good days is because the principal has sent reinforcements! I have a the use of a tutor who is bilingual first period!!!!!!! She is not just a tutor but a certified teacher. It is amazing how the presence of another adult makes a difference. With this help I have become embolden to take The 35 to the science lab on Monday for a cloud making lab. They have to use matches even!!! I better put the fire department on alert!!!!!!
Today is a beautiful autumn day and I have lesson plans to make. Stay turned to you police scanners on Monday in case The 35 set the school on fire! That's all from the nutty schoolmarm.
Maybe they're just gathering thier stores for winter. ; )
