I remembered! :D

So my kids are still kind of crazy, so Mrs. Cogorno put them in a seating chart this week. Last week I worked on my own art project more than I helped them. It was very helpful for myself to get that extra work time, but the kids weren't very appreciative of me working on my own work. They want my attention all of the time, it began to get annoying. They would keep asking me what I was working on and wanted to look at it all of the time. I understand that it could have been helpful for them to see a high schooler's art work, but it became a distraction. Don't get me wrong, I love my class, but it's hard to remember that they are only middle schoolers and get distracted easily. By the way I did have permission to work on my own project.

I am having trouble commenting on others' posts on the school computers. I can do it fine on my iPod and computer at home. However, I can't make a post from my iPod. It's very weird.

Any ways I really hope this new seating chart will help calm my class down and they can be more focused. They just finished a project on implied lines and are going to start Native American Art. I think they are going to make a dream catcher and work on weaving. I am excited to see how everything turns out.

  1. I know exactly what you mean!! some of the things that the kids do in my class it really makes me wanna go "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!?!?!?" Then i have to remind myself that they are only middle schoolers. hopefully it'll get easier. :)

  2. Little kids seem to be the most curious... and that occurs ALL OF THE TIME! If it was the drawing of yourself with the words then I can't blame them for asking, because it is really neat and just sort of amazing! But the dream catcher project sounds like it's gonna turn out pretty cool :)

  3. Emily- the commenting is selective for me too, along with the posting... But, I'm glad you're having fun!
