Well, I have survived the first full week of school. A few bumps and bruises along the way, but I think I might have the most awesome class in the entire school (only a
little biased). However, I thought this three day weekend might never come.
On the second day of school my car wouldn't start. Boy was sweet enough to pick me up and take me to school after him only getting off work four hours earlier. Turns out my battery had cracked and was leaking battery acid.... so, that was fun. Oh, and then on day four. I wake up with no power. Why? I still have no idea, but I did somehow manage to stab myself in the eye while trying to put my contacts in by candle light.
Luckily, things at school have run much more smoothly. We have spent a lot of time these past few days learning about each other, making new friends, and deciding upon our class rules. We started by reading No David and David goes to school and talking about what rules David might be breaking and why we need rules. Then we listed every rule we might ever need. Finally, we started grouping our common rules and changed them to use more positive language. This is what
we they have come up with.
It was funny. They kept saying "Well, if you pay attention, you'll know you aren't supposed to chew gum in class because the teacher will tell you" or "If you're paying attention you won't run in the hall."
So, that's it everyone.
The only rule you need to follow.
Pay attention.
