A brief anecdote from yesterday's ridiculous classroom experience:
After hearing from a traumatized Linnea that one of her kindergartners literally took a crap on her classroom floor during her first period yesterday (she had to wait for the cleaning lady to come, who picked up the feces with toilet paper), I thought that'd be the pinnacle-funny-story of the day.
Imagine my surprise when, in my Pratom 3/3 class, I witnessed one of my third grade boys shove a tiny paper ball up his nose as if it were ammo, then put a pen cap up the same nostril (a missile launcher, of course), and, after taking a huge breath, shot it out of his nose.
At that point in the day (my second-to-last-class), I was utterly exhausted and was in a very frustrated mood. But that...that scene I witnessed in front of my eyes, as I watched a white paper ball, covered in little boy snot, fly across the room, just made me crack up. Kind of out of insanity.
I laughed for a good five minutes as my students looked at me, and then laughed with me (though most had no idea what I was laughing about). I mean, really, what else can you do?
Just another day in the life.
