Yesterday was Monday/Thursday because Monday and Tuesday I enjoyed at home courtesy of Hurricane Ida. Wednesday was Veterans' Day. So...one very short week!!
Yesterday was awesome.
Today was awesome until lunch. I just wrote up my favorite student (I think I've been calling him my "pet project" on here lately). I took 10 minutes in the cafeteria waiting on the boys to be quiet. Finally, they did, and I told them that anyone who talks would get a pink slip (office referral). Talking was the mildest thing on my pet project's referral, and there was a list of 8 specific things that he did between the cafeteria and the classroom that were not following instructions and/or very disrespectful and rude.
I think suspension #3 is coming up...but I'm not sure. My principal is calling home.
I sent 5 7th graders out of my class this morning because they came in and wouldn't sit down and do their work after 3-5 minutes of constant reminders. Yesterday, I sent 4 8th graders down to the office because they could not function in class. We'll see if today's any better.

How about letting us enjoy some of your success stories, about why you had 1-1/2 awesome days! Get off the negative stuff - let me know how much of a positive impact you are having on some of those kids. It probably isn't as obvious to you as those rowdy kids, but I have to think there are some successes out there too!! Keep up the good work!
