For the curious:

SPOILERS! (Click to view)
If you are holding a generally short-tempered kitty upside-down against her wishes, it is probably not a good idea to also try to kiss her on her forehead. She might just be pissed enough to swat at your face. If you are lucky, she will miss your cornea, but will hook her pointy claw on the inside of your lower eyelid.

And you will bleed from your eye. Which, y'know, sounds kinda cool, as long as you live through it.



So, I think I discovered why I'm not usually productive. It's tiring. Like, exhausting.

But it's a good kind... I got a lot done, today. Taking a fast fast break from editing my unit to apologize to the lovely Not_Tom, K_Rex, Kriss, Schiavona, and the rest of the SGNC gang that I'm missing, tonight. I suck. I promise I won't be lame all the time, I just have two really big things to do this weekend, and I needed to clean/organize. I was going batty in this apartment.

Student teaching is going really well - I've heard nothing but compliments from my supervisor and my cooperating teacher, I am getting along with the parents pretty well, and the kids are all surviving me. And some of them are even learning. wink The only thing I really have to work on is transitions.

Boring teacher stuff:

SPOILERS! (Click to view)
See, my students spend 8:40-12:30 in the classroom. Meaning, they don't really have any big transitions until they go to lunch. So, they are generally really great, attentive, and likable in the morning. HOWEVER, as soon as we go to lunch, they go nuts. It's a combination of restlessness from the morning, leaving the room for the first time that day, and going to a noisy cafeteria to eat lunch. After lunch, they go to recess, then special (PE, art, etc), and then they come back to me for an hour. So, they have one big transition from 12:30-2:30 that gets them all riled up, and I need to work on preventing them from getting out of control. I am working on some ways to make this better, but at the moment it's making me crazy. I love them, and the fact that all of them are nuts in the afternoon tells me that it's something I need to change, not just them.



In short, this is how I feel from 12:30-3:30pm, every day (except mine are 1st graders):



So, I need a whistle and some ferrets.

not_tom:
