My son is overjoyed it is a rainy day.
All I can do is cringe.
This is the difference between students and teachers.
One of many differences.
I am taller and wear better clothes.
Speaking of better clothes…
These are my new rain boots. I bought the teal ones.
{love them? click here}
SO here is what happened today.
I had 30 kid free minutes in the course of a 400 minute school day.
So I was a little ummmmm…over it
and so were they.
In the course of one of our last indoor recesses
one of my girls tackled one of my boys…
Tackled him to the ground…
She lunged from 25 feet away….
like a PaNtHeR!
It was all over this.
She wanted to shake the jar from our hibernation
And
she
wanted
to
shake
it
now.
The tackled boy was in shock.
I was in shock.
I half expected her to do the end zone victory dance.
Instead she grabbed the jar and ran.
I have total control of my students.
But this little girl is headed to our Special Day Class and I love her.
My boy is just a sweetheart and shouted out,
“Hey, next time just use your words! OK?!?”
That my friends is life with first graders
trapped
inside'
all
the
live
long
day!
