Today was a really crappy day. The first one that I've had in my student teaching. My lessons went fine, and we accomplished everything that I wanted to. BUT there are some kids in my 3rd and 6th periods that just made my day crappy. I hate that.
In Ancient World History, we were talking about Ways of Life in China. 2nd hour went really well. Those children get a gold star, each. 3rd hour, there are about SIX boys that are all kinds of chatty. I had to struggle to restrain myself from saying very bad words to these children.[Very bad words that I don't even say!] They make my life difficult. I do understand that it is right before lunch, but SERIOUSLY children?!
In U.S. History, we were talking about our National Anthem. Much like my other classes, 5th hour went really well. I even let them do some group work. 6th hour, I have 3 boys that are just crazy LOUD. One in particular.
Today slayed me.
Today was a day that if I had wanted to start drinking, today would be a good day to start.
Today is a day where I wish that I owned a machete or something. Not to use on the children (but to use on things that I imagined were the children). Just so that I can cut and smash some stuff up. Is that too much to ask?
Now that I've written it down, I am ready to put it away, because I have to go back to school tomorrow.
Oh the children.
Yep! Sometimes it only takes one rotten apple to spoil the whole bunch. Hope tomorrow is much better for you. Hugs!
