This past weekend I went on a trip, and I was not at school on Tuesday (Inauguration Day). Last week I talked to the students about how I would not be in class on Tuesday and where I was going (NOT to Washington D.C.). I wanted my students to watch Obama being sworn in as the 44th President of The United States, so my teaching aide turned on the television.
Throughout the day I sent her text messages asking how the students were doing. Here's the run down:
1. Rob threw a chair because he didn't want to do his work
2. Jack got very worked up and threatened to hit Rob many times because "he was looking at me."
3. Stephen, who is usually well behaved, cried and hid in the corner of the room and under his desk all day because he was "last" in line for the bathroom.
4. Rob tripped on his untied shoelace and fell on his face. Then Jack jumped up yelling and blamed Lacy for tripping Rob. Lacy was sitting in her desk on the other side of the room.
5. The whole class kept claiming they saw me on T.V. at the Inauguration. They said I was at the White House all day. When my aide asked them to point to me, they pointed to one of the 60 yr. old men on the stage with Obama. I feel so pretty now.
