My Students

So this week would have to have been my best week so far for teaching. My students were great, my lesson rocked, and I really felt like I was finally getting closer to my students! Tuesday two of my boys made me promise to go to their soccer game. I did...at first they were screaming my name and shouting at how beautiful I was, but they would not come and talk to me during the break they would all sit like 2 meters away even though they made me promise them!! But they were really great at soccer.

Then the next day was Halloween!!! So exciting!!!! This week was a zombie apocalypse lesson (they died hahah). But they thought it was hilarious that I was so into it, they told me after class, "Teacher, before we thought you were strict, but we know all lies. but now you just cute and funny. We love you!" So during Halloween, if they Trick or Treated to me they could get candy, I have never had that many students line up at my door (obviously for easy candy). I usually made them promise me something, some examples: "Don't use your comb in my class", "Come visit me, I am so lonely, I cry everyday because no one visits me" , "Why do you talk so much in class when I am talking, promise to stop talking when I am talking", "Control your classmates they are crazy", and a few 2nd graders just to annoy them: "3rd graders are so nice to me and are not rude to me, I will give them candy first".

And of course to my soccer players:
Me:  "You made me promise to watch you play why didn't you talk to me"
Them: "teacher, sorry, we were focused"
Me: "lies, you were talking to each other and your team was losing"
Them: "teacher, we were shy to talk to you"
Me: "don't be shy, I was sad because you did not talk to me, promise you will talk to me"

My club class students get picked on the most by me in class, but they love it because they know it's out of love. And they get to carve pumpkins which they loved. On the bag it was: PiL C For payal's Class.

Once in a while with a rude boy: "teacher ahhh your picture my eyes hurt" me to him: "I have to see your face everyday and my eyes hurt all the time, now you feel my pain" Cue class laughter. haha

My students are great though. I love them. They are veryyy active sometimes crazy. Thursday a group of girls invited me to lunch with them, my favorite student's girlfriend actually. And then I went to my classroom and 40 of my students were waiting for me and scared me saying "My lonely teacher we are here to play with you!" Some are brats though, when I told them no candy they left (but those are the 2nd graders).

They are great kids, and I'm so sad to think that in a few years, they will forget me, but I won't forget them, especially my third graders who are going to high school :( love them! But I think that it's one of the things with teaching you just grow to love them so much. They are my teeny-boppers.

And when they get in trouble: they must make me hearts to show me how much they love me, and until I am happy (because I am a girl, I need lots of love)

Love you, Miss you.Just a long update on school life.
MOMMY THANKS FOR THE PACKAGE!
