October 8, 2010

The substitute that was in my classroom yesterday is useless. He let my students tear up my room and some library books. I'm not sure what he did to try and control them, but he obviously did not let them know he was in charge. I am just not happy with that person at all. He said my class was the worst class he's ever seen. He needs to see them when they are with me. They don't give that many problems to the art, music, and gym teachers, or any of the other teachers in the building. It is kind of sad that a grown man cannot control 19 first graders.

Michaela had swim practice tonight. She is having her period and had to learn to use tampons this week. It is distressing her, but she does not want to miss swim practice. She is still learning to deal with this and how to manage it as it is only her second one. I feel badly for her because it can be stressful, but it is something she has to get used to. Both her coaches were very kind to her and helped her through the night. I really like them both, they are great with the kids.
