What a bleepy day!

Yesterday was so bad I had to decompress for awhile before I even got on the computer. Instead I watched some tv so I could relax and unwind. What a day of contrast it was- from having first period off, to the perfect angels in second period followed by two periods of ruffians with bad language and practically no work getting done. Good thing there was the restroom restrictions still on or they would have all deserted me. As it was the kids who I picked to take the attendance down took longer breaks than expected and the kids were acting up becasue of that to. So with that I decided no more new bldg assignments for the rest of the year dspite their small number of students that they have. I almost expetced to have a bruxism attack during the night but I didn't. Prasie the lord and pass the ammunition.LOL!

Friday Once Again

Well first the students. The honor classes were worst in behavior than the regular sophomore classes.
And three workbooks went missing at end of the 5th and 7th periods. Then the threats were still looming and gossip still. One girl was called out of my class and came back crying and then left. To top it off the princ came on saying everything was a rumour before and after classes . Then we said something to the effect that the threats were true. Plus there was abductions going on the nieghborhood of the school as well. The last period was a real slow one. I couldn't wait to go home.

Ugh Awful

These sophomores were terrible, noone understood the rule of no talking rule in FCAT practice testing. They all grecieved bad revies including the juniors in that third period favor I had today. Tommorow is dedintelya do nothing day; which goes into affect once I give them assignment. Thye coild tlak their fool head off. I am beat and tired of yelling at kids this week. Our school made facebook as a bad Valentine threat hovers over MOnday. I am defimneyly not going in ion MOnday. The dabger is not $75 worth. The other days are filled with appointmets and Monday is a holiday. So I won't be going in again til the 22nd. A needed respite I do deserve I think. I'll let you know the day goies tommorow.Caio.

Day One

Well it wasa surorisong diffent aspect of tht room. Last time noone was interested in the movie. But today they had a writting assignment anda quiz for the first two periods. It was quiet and solitude in that room for a change. Then it was the last period with the lower class students but after 10 minutes they were like the juniors. But then -dah da dun ta dah! -a favor was asked of me to sit in for another english teacher tommorow in my period. BUt the silver lining is that I'll same the same assignment for all 4 period. Quietude will rain and stress will not dare enter that room. I think it was good beasue I inforced FCAT standards fof the writting period of 45 minutes. Maybe i'll do that for the other teachers class as well.Which leads me into Friday. I decided it's going to be another do it if you want day but not inforced just let it happen.I'll let you now how tommorow goes with all 4 in FCAT mode.

ANother Multiday assignment

Well today was wonderfully surprising. The classes were all quiet and small in number although they only did half the work they were suppose to. And I picked up another 3 day assignemnt for the next three days. Tommorow  Wednedday is a short day. Thursday I have a period off. But again Friday is the killer with all four periods. I'll let you know how it goes each day. Tata!

Tommorow with the Frosh

My mother who drives me to and back frio wiork noticed that when I work in the new bldg with the frosh it takes longer for me to get to the car. Sometimes I am on the far end and upstairs and have to walk down the hall, ride down the elevator, then around the bldg to the main office bldg and down the hall to where I drop off my review. Then out the main doors and down the parking lot to where she parks. It's another reason making the assigemnt there a little less comfortable. Good thing is that I have first period off and then an A lunch. So I'll let you know how it goes. 

Friday was fun day for all

As I said I let them talk and they were fine. Today it was junior and sophomore though. They were a little loud but iothing to yell it. Some did the assignment in full, other did part of it and still others just talked all period. Me, I finished reading a book and did puzzzles. I also ate lunch before my assigned lunch time because I felt a little headache. I even helped them with their worksheet assignment a little .Funny thing one student was reported moved to Bufflao. It's  usually the other way around people leaving Buffalo. Not to mention that it's my hometown. It was pretty good for a Friday. The last period didn't lag behind like it usually does either. So a good day all in all.

Good Thursday maybe Bad Friday

Well I was pleasantly surprised today when I found out that I had junior and seniors all day. Then again when it was a quiz and worksheet assignment. That was after I wondered all over campus to finally realize that the classroom I was looking for was only two doors way from the enterance and main office.LOL!!! Duh!! I have only been working there 12 years and I still have to wander around to find some classrooms. Even the last period which I thought I was going to be slow was a little faster going. But I still dread tommorow. I decided just to loet them tlak their little hearts off all day.while they do their worksheet. I'll let you know how it went as usual.

Three days and half the month to go

Last night I got a request to go for an art teacher. I thought it was really good for three reasons-it's a half day at Wednesday, I thoguht she had last period off and I was home early. But unfortenutely she was not off last period though I still able to go home pretty early. I also got a two day assignment I  am dreading and so are my folks. They are really sick and wanted me to stay home, but since I found out I made less this year (=13 days worth) than the year before and my folks are getting older I can't afford to stay home if I want to have money to keep me goimng after they are gone. It's for a math class in a real small classroom. The only good thing it's not in the new bldg but it's still with freshman. The good news is Thursday I'll have second period off and a c lunch to break up the third period. Friday I will dread because it has no free period and just the c lunch.I'll let you know how it goes later.
