It's the third day, and I'm exhausted, but on top of the world! Today, I took care of basically everything. I only had time to grade one assignment! I ended up teaching social studies, Math, reading, and English. And tutored two girls. Today she let me take over as much as possible in order to be ready by the 26th, which is when she'll be out with her dad. I still need to work on management. The kids by the end of the day are loud and roudy. Although, they're like that with her to, so maybe it's normal?
So today's highlight...
We've been studying about Martin Luther King Jr. because of the holiday coming up...so we read this paper about how his birthday is tomorrow. So one of the kids asks, "Why don't we get tomorrow off instead of Monday since tomorrow is his birthday?" Before I could answer with anything another student pipes up and says, "Because that's when his birthday party is!" Oh my goodness, that made me laugh, and everyone nodded in agreement! Like that made perfect sense! [Even though we also studied that he was shot in April and all.] So next time YOU think about Martin and our Monday day off...you remember his party ok?
I am so tired...I need sleep.
