Have you ever had a day where you don't feel like doing anything? Well, that's the kind of week it has been for me. I woke up yesterday not wanting to go to school. Luckily it was a short day, so the kids left early. My morning class was so talkative that I even told them that they were "driving me crazy," which they actually thought was kinda funny. Then we packed up a few minutes early because I told them I was tired of trying to talk over them. They asked if I was really ready to send them home and I told my aide that I was ready for them to go home an hour ago. She could not stop laughing. The kids didn't hear the comment and they thought we were crazy for laughing so much. The afternoon class made up for the morning class by acting like perfect angels. Boy do I love that class! Anytime they would start to talk, I would just have to say, "where are my angels?" and they would stop. It was like magic.
Then, today I woke up feeling really sick. Once again I did not want to go to school. I don't know what has gotten into me. And once again the morning class was a nightmare. Hopefully they will learn one day. The afternoon class was great once again!
Right now I am trying to motivate myself to figure out tomorrow's plans and everything for parent teacher conferences, but I just can't do it. I have that same feeling: I don't want to go to school. Maybe it is the mid-year blues. We are half-way through the year so it isn't the exciting beginning anymore and we aren't close enough to be looking forward to the end. Or maybe it is the "I know I am going to be at school until 8 the rest of this week" blues and I am already dreading it. Who knows? All I know is that I need to figure it out before the morning.

I can understand how frustrating it would be to have a class behaving so poorly; I feel bad for you.
Of course, I also remember how much fun it is to tease you, so I can see it from the kids' point of view as well...
Oh man. You should have seen them today! Teasing is one thing...I can handle that. Hitting and kicking and acting like hooligans is another thing. I sent 2 kids to the principal's office today. I think they are getting stir crazy! It's time for summer!
