i love the fact that this was a 4-day work week. it's friday and i've made it to the third week. it's hard to believe that it's already been about 3 weeks since school started. so far, i've dealt with finding cockroaches in the classroom and killing them while making sure the kids don't react and freak out, 4th grade social drama - a group of girls harrassing this poor kid about "who he loves," kids "playing" rough at recesses, calling some parents, and doling out the negative consequences of poor student choices. it's just a little crazy. i'm pretty sure i look forward to the end of the day more than they do.
the tough part is remembering that they're 9 years old. it's so funny how different they are. some are super responsible and mature and joyfully participate and align themselves with school expectations while others look like they don't have a clue. oh the variety... it certainly keeps me on my toes.
