Day 50

Just a quick note today because I have to get off the computer. Today was another good day. There were only a couple of small fires to put out. One of my students was called a name and she fell apart. I talked to her and let her know that she knew the name was not true and that a friend could not call her such a name. I think I was able to get her to understand this time. She is a drama queen and gets her feeling hurt easily.

The other fire was less dramatic. I confiscated a toy for the rest of the day and my students hid her head under her coat and pouted. By the time school was over she was okay. The final student had a younger student mess with her. She is smaller than most third graders and she felt threatened. I talked with the third grader and to her brother who is in my class. Hopefully all will be well.

I left tonight at 4 p.m. because I had a Scout meeting to attend.
