| so yesterday i subbed in kindergarten. it was funny. there was this absolutely cutest little boy in the class and he kept me quite entertained all day. right from the start i could tell that i needed to have him be my little helper to keep him on track. by the time he went home, he had thrown two temper tantrums. the first one was on the way to lunch. he started running through the line and running into kids and knocking people over so i pulled him aside to wait until the rest of the students got in line. he sure did not like that i pulled him aside and threw himself on the ground where he started crying and screaming and throwing a fit. i couldnt help laugh as other classes were approaching and people were looking at me like what is going on here!? i picked the kid up and brought him to the office where they "ignored" him and let him sit until he could calm down. shortly after lunch, the kids were sitting down ready to listen to a story, all except this one little boy. i kind of was just ignoring the fact that he was not with our group until it was time for the special helper (who happened to be this little boy) to bring the attendance down to the office. since he was not doing what he was supposed to be doing, i chose another child to be the helper and bring the attendance down to the office. this brought the little boy over to me immediately, where he started screaming. crying, and hitting me. i couldnt help laughing (not where he could see me though of course) and let him be while i got the other students ready for art class. he refused to calm down and get in line so i just left him crying in the room while i brought the other kids to art. a parapro was in the hall, so i asked her to go keep an eye on him until i got back and she was able to calm him down. after talking with the parapro and the little guy, i brought him to art and then stopped in the office where i mentioned to the secretary what happened. immediately she told me he needed to come down to the office and get sent home because hitting a teacher is never allowed! so i had to go get him out of art and of course, that got him all worked up again. just watching him get all upset and start crying was so adorable that it took all that was within me not to let him see me laughing at him! his mom was called and she came to get him. i had to tell her all what happened and she made him apologize to me for hitting and explained to him that he will never hit her or any other adult ever!!! i can't wait to be a mother someday to tell my kids not to hit adults. :) that was the entertainment of my day yesterday. today's entertainment: being told i dont get to work over Christmas break, Christmas shopping, putting up ornaments on the tree, and watching the wizard of oz until bedtime in just a short while. tomorrow's entertainment: im sure i will have a good story for you because im subbing in 5th grade. the fun never ends around here. sweet dreams world!
