Vote for the Title

So I've considered two titles for this blog entry:

1) "Terrible Tuesdays?" - because last Tuesday was difficult and today was even more challenging!

2) "Death By First Graders" - because I was near death today while trying to deal with a exceedingly naughty class of 26 first graders!

3) And other suggestions?

So yes, I do not have the energy to completely rehash my day, but here it is in short:

Kids were loud
Kids did not stay in their seats
Kids did not listen to me while I was talking
Kids hit other kids
Kids rolled around on the floor
Kids yelled out "TEACHER!" all day long
Kids didn't do their work
Kids made a mess

When the kids finally went home I was totally spent!  And since I'm either stupid or brave, I'm going back again tomorrow.  I have a plan of attack though, so hopefully we will see improvement.  I don't think it can get much worse!

I'll take option #2. Unless you like 'Kids: Can't Teach 'em, Can't Kill 'em' or maybe "8 Reasons To Bring Back Corporal Punishment" Sorry the kids were so difficult for you. Hope the week gets easier as it goes.
Hugs, Rhonda

I vote for option #2 also or one of Rhonda's. You don't want to label Tuesday for the future! Makes you long for one of those days when you can't think of anything to write about. Love you!!! MOM
