Everyone knows, kids go crazy the day before break starts...
Just a week ago, they could literally be heard screaming down the halls,
"SPRING BREAK IS HERE!!!!!!!!"
What no one tells you is that breaks screw up a classroom, a school, everything (I may be a little dramatic!)
I remember being a kid, and you couldn't wait until school started back up so you could
see your friends
show off your new clothes/tan/haircut/shoes/etc.
hear all about their vacation.
As a teacher, breaks mean starting over again.
We only spent the first 3 months of school, perfecting how to walk in a line
But spring break hit and today, instead of walking in a line, we walked in a bunch
And when the line went straight, someone always turned left.
And then there are the things heard throughout school...
"Mrs. Teacher-who-makes-everyone-laugh, is "obviously a boy" a boy? Because sometimes I think HE
might be a girl."
"I have been sick 60 times today."
"Where did you get your dress? I really like how crazy it looks." (Kindergarten boy said this).
"Can we turn off the air-conditioning? It's too cold." (Mind you, the air conditioning is brand new, first time
it has been used in the classroom.
And my personal favorite of the day.....
A boy slapped someone and then lied to me...OBVIOUSLY the cherry on top of a
crazy crazy day! Check back later for my sanity...hopefully the lost will be found.
