Here's how my day started (long)

I go to write in a student's planner about how they didn't do any of their homework last night. In the notes section from last week there is this little ditty.

The planner has quotes in it and asks for "student input" the quote was Jose & his brother Juan enjoy playing outside. What kind of things do you enjoy doing?

My student's response: having sex

 Did I mention I teach 2nd grade? She's 7!!! Apparently she sits with 7th & 8th graders on the bus (her seat got chaged b/c she wasn't getting along with her original bus buddy) and she heard them all talking about it and how "great" it is.

I emailed her Mom at work and told her that I needed to talk to her ASAP about something I had read in her planner and that I would love to do it today. Never even got a reply let along a phone call.

Oh yeah, and then a kid threw up in the garbage can right in front of me 10 seconds AFTER the school nurse sent him back to class because he was fine. I got hit with some splatter

Any day with splatter is a bad day.

Hope your night is better.

OMG!  Who do you even contact about that?  The guidance counselor?  The principle?  yikes.  That's horrible.  So sorry.

Don't you just love teaching?! Yesterday one girl pissed herself while taking a test in my room...I guess she was a bit nervous...

I hope your student's mom calls you to set up a meeting with you, it's so disturbing.

Ew. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

Those would be the exact people I contacted. I emailed the guidance counselor as soon as I saw it. The vice principal came to my room in the morning just to stop in and say hi, so I showed it to her. Basically we photocopied it and the guidance counselor talked to her for almost an hour. Basically to find out if something else was going on or if it was really info she was getting on the bus. Turns out it is bus talk, that was a huge relief, I was really worried something terrible was going on at home.

 

KarBarr~I hate when kids piss themselves in class. I rarely tell a kid they can't go to the bathroom just tell me you have to go for crying out loud!!!!

I went to write in a student's planner today for pretty much the same thing.  He growled at me. I teach 8th grade.  They don't pay us enough.

Yeah, she's in middle school too (just taking the test in my room). Thank goodness I teach high school! The day a high school  kid pees in my room, I'm done!

LOFL! I think that would be a good time to resign. Although a middle schooler pissing their pants is pretty close!

I giggled, I won't lie. What did you do when he growled?
