He/She Started It!

I do not want to hear this phrase again!

Although I'm afraid I probably will tomorrow, because it seemed to be one boy's excuse of choice and I'm going back to the same class tomorrow.

I'm not kidding you, EVERY TIME I went over to his table to see how they were doing, one kid would complain about him doing something and he would defend himself with "He (or She) started it!!" Despite how many times I told him I did not care, despite the fact that I moved him to a new seat, he still fell back on the blame others technique. It was very annoying.

Another boy in the class thought he was all that and frequently I heard him proclaiming that he was "cute" and "hot". I was disturbed. What person has encouraged these proclamations? Because clearly he is developing a big head. He also thought it was funny to be a smart alec ALL THE TIME! I eventually had to tell him to knock it off and get over himself. Doubt that's going to last til tomorrow either....,

Anyway, the rest of the class was pretty good minus a couple screwballs. It is the end of May after all. Hopefully I will survive tomorrow as well.

It sounds like that class has the classic end of year annoying behavior. The "hot" boy is kind of a concern. Why parents would find that cute to tell their child I can't imagine. Hope tomorrow will go well and the "innocent victim of everyone around him" will be less of a problem.

Well I'm hot too and I manage not to tell everyone all the time. Seriously, who does that? He's going to have a rude awakening some day. It sounds like there were several strange behaviors in this class. Curious to see how today went.
