I've now seen it all. Some kids have a legit fear. They fear that if they learn, if they get the education their brains will grow and expand until it starts to ooze out of their ears. I have the task of helping them understand that it won't happen and I'm a testament. Not sure if I'm the best example. LoL.
The week is a wrap. I did get my lesson plans done. The kids learned. I made it through and we'll get back at it next week. Next week is going to be short, but I'm ready for an adventure.
An area for improvement has to be to increase contact with the positive parents. I call those that need improvement, but my well mannered ones need a call, too. Got to let them know their kids are on their game. A lot of kids come to class daily ready to work. I can see it in their eyes. I also see the hurt when the day/class/lesson gets derailed by kids without the same drive.
