And We Have Another One
Ok so I am starting to get the hang of this scedual thing. We ran a little late today but for the most part we pulled it together and got it done. Now if ya didnt figure out what the title might mean I will reveil it now. I am three for three for making kids cry. At this point its getting a little rediculas. Today a girl got a little attitude. I was helping a student fix his crayon box and I told the students to get out thier Science books for class. One of the gilrs turns around and says "Can we get started?" I was speechless. I made a little joke and said well I havnt told you what to do yet thinking this would sole the problem. She then said "I can read"..........what the hell just happened? I got upset at this point about the attitude she was getting and so I sternly exsplained how innaproprate the situation was and how she needs to respect a teacher by doing what they say and not question them. This of course upset her and although I didnt agknowlege her I could she her sniffling out of the courner of my eye. I choose to just continue the lesson and I belive that she and the rest of the class learned a lesson about not upsettin gthe teacher. And dont worry I am not planning on doing a "repeat the threepeat" senereo with all these tears. Yes I pulled that out. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to report a tearless day. Lastly, I am doing better at adjusting to my new scedual but its still painful to get up at 6am everyday. I hope you are all doing well and I miss all of you!!!! Have a good one!

There is no crying in baseball...but apparently there IS crying in Mr. G's classroom!
I agree, lay down the law now or suffer a year of sassy kids and a reputation as a pushover. Yup, better to have a reputation as the teacher that makes em cry! Just kidding, cause the darkness and love note things were totally not your fault!
