I guess I thought I was a better teacher than I am! Ha. At this rate I will be taking Friday off this week and if next week is still crazy then I will take a day then too. I am in survival mode. <br /><br />Karen- I'm only certified for grades 6-12. Actually I like middle school ages, but the talking back is really terrible here. In fact, I get sucked in when they argue with me or talk over me and then I get louder and next thing I know, I am just as bad as them. Well, we will see how it all goes! Almost done...almost!Travelin' Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07370216683726997579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055146616300304133.post-17077049760087528482009-05-24T16:18:27.519-07:002009-05-24T16:18:27.519-07:00You just described some of my worst teaching night...You just described some of my worst teaching nightmares. I still have them occasionally and I'm so glad when I wake up. My advice: 2nd grade. They are old enough to work independently and young enough to love their teacher. I discovered that while subbing. Good luck to you.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519162646565146423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5055146616300304133.post-77993430208251852852009-05-23T07:24:43.868-07:002009-05-23T07:24:43.868-07:00Oh my gosh, I have NO IDEA how you do it!!!!!
