Break?

Yesterday was an interesting day.  I started off with our daily parody, then moved on to the story in most classes, then went on to source cards.  I didn't start the 1001 Nights Festival in my 3rd period class on Monday because they wouldn't be quiet and listen to what I had to say.  I was surprised yesterday when one of my troublemakers in the class asked me why I read to my other classes and not to theirs.  She then asked if I was going to read to them yesterday.  I said probably not because they wouldn't be quiet long enough for me to, and as one of the ringleaders, she quieted the class down and listened attentively as I read the first part of 1001 Arabian Nights.  I was really excited about the reaction I got for the daily story.  Most of the students seem to like it, and even the ones who are too cool to like being read to were upset when I stopped in the middle of the story (which is the point of the 1001 Nights Festival).

Today we had the reading part of the Chunk test.  They students complained a bit, but settled down and were pretty good for Chunk day.  I suddenly became overwhelmingly tired during sixth period, but I got through the day.  This was hump day, so I have one week and three days until finals, and then four days until break.  Yay!  I love my job, but with scholastic audit coming up, I'm stressed to the max.  I can't wait until January is over!  :)
