I spent the last two days substituting for a first grade teacher. Here's roughly what it was like (minus the gun and German talk):
I'm pretty sure that when I was in 1st grade, my classmates didn't cry as much as these kids did these last two days. Tomorrow will be different, though. I'll be at a "secondary disciplinary alternative" school. Should be fun.

maybe because your class didn't have a scary old man as a substitute. ;)
ReplyDeleteLast night Craig really did look like the arnold at the end of the clip - exhausted. And his two biggest complaints, they cried too much and they weren't very independent. My response to almost everything he told me - "They're 6!" Boy would I have loved to be a fly on the wall in that classroom this week.
ReplyDeleteDoes Craig HAVE to take this job? I do so want to have grandchildren!
ReplyDeletehaha I can see Craig completely exhausted from that experience. I usually am too after 1st/2nd graders. They require way too much attention.
