They Remembered!

Yes, they remembered that there are 3 feet in a yard! Well, some of them did. Some also remembered that there are 36 inches in a yard! I am a fabulous teacher.

My day went pretty well today. Nobody hid in the corner like yesterday (a relatively minor problem from yesterday, but nice to not even deal with it today). My biggest problems were one kid who fell at recess and cried, and another kid who apparently was yelled at at recess (the one I didn't have duty during), and came back in crying about that and the fact that the other kids were cheating. Really, I think half of the problem was that this kid is a bit bossy and was probably telling everyone how to do everything and they got fed up.

Nobody appreciates a bossy person - not even in 2nd grade.

But we still took a couple minutes to talk about following the rules and how nobody wants to play with a cheater. Ya know, sometimes my job as a substitute is to just appease everybody.
