hello rover

another week has passed and i ended on a happy note this week. i went for a run in the 4x100 relay on the teacher team - we came last, it didn't matter. i hammered some of the 8's this week telling them that they needed to behave more maturely and not run around switching lights and fans on and off and yelling and screaming at each other. i made them write out lines in class. they were mad, i made them stay back at lunch and let the better behaved students go out first. they got madder. i did not mind. they got the message. unfortunately i only have one week left with them, so i will never know if i got through to them and helped them learn some new behaviours. i can only hope.
