Finally Friday!

So after the last few weeks of various challenging classrooms and stressful situations I was finally rewarded with a pleasant, easy day! Yay!

The class I was in today is a class I've subbed for several times already this year.  The kids know me well and seem to like me. :)

They've always been a pretty good class, but today was even better!  The two kids who were the most chatty or disruptive the last few times I've been there are apparently no longer in the class - moved I guess.  So the group was really pretty calm.  A couple hyper-ish kids, but half the time the stuff they were telling me was so funny I couldn't really be annoyed.

And it was a fun day - they had a "homework celebration" at the end of the day where everyone just got free time to play games.  I brought a few spatial puzzles with me - a wooden box with 6 pieces of various sizes that you have to get to fit inside the box, and two of those metal puzzles where you have to get a certain piece off of the rest of the puzzle.  They liked playing with those for a while although they didn't really have enough time to figure them out.  They were quite amazing that I could do the medal ones in like 30 seconds (I practiced last night).  Now, onto the weekend and two more weeks of school!
