Please - No More Crying!

Today was a bit of a challenge. I dealt with a lot of crying.

Some was because kids didn't get their way. (And then again when I sent the child to the office.)

Some was because someone said something mean to someone else.

Some was because some kid hit another kid.

Some was because a kid lost her earring.

Literally, there was someone crying pretty much ever hour I was with the class. I was so glad to send them home and have some peace and quiet!

Besides the crying, we had an assembly, did journal writing, read Charlotte's Web, worked on telling time and did a math worksheet, and read a Time for Kids magazine. If not for the crying fits we probably would have gotten a lot more done! Spring fever is here!

I could have sworn that I wrote a comment on this day's post but I guess I didn't. I sympathize with you for having to put up with so much crying. You would think by the time children hit school that wouldn't be so common but some children are slow to get past the immediate crying reaction. Glad you survived.
Love you!!! MOM
