 |   Theses are my thoughts and ramblings as I forge my way through this thing they call life. |
30 Day Blogging Challenge PROMPT January 17th Use the following words in your entry today: tumultuous, navigate, journey, and gargantuan. Well, I could be a smart ass and tell you that I need to use the words tumultuous, navigate, journey and gargantuan in my entry today and be done with it, but that would be just boring. But it would meet the requirements in one sentence.  So I will navigate my mind and see what else I can come up with. It's pretty scary in there... the dust bunnies have gargantuan sized teeth! I don't think I have ever used the word gargantuan to describe anything.... or not had to write it anyway. My journey through this week has been rather tumultuous. Thankfully, I have survived and have lived to tell my tale. I think a lot of the staff at the school I work at have had busy weeks. Only a mere handful (4) of us made it to yoga one nutrition break because the others that signed up, were in their classrooms helping students or dealing with behaviour issues that had come up during the first 90 minutes of their day... and that was only Wednesday. We were all starting to wonder if their had been a full moon we had missed or something. Thursday was even wilder. There were two Educational Assistants that took the day off today to recuperate from some behaviour issues that happened yesterday and another one is wearing a heating back bandage after getting hit in the back by a flying Ipad. I know at least one student got sent home for having destroyed his classroom. He was in the office when I saw him and he was upending things in there while the Child and Youth worker was calling his mother. He was a grade one student... from a regular class. In my class, which is a special education class, we had to remove the paint center because one of our little darlings was interesting in flinging paint all around the room. You might be wondering if we are a special school with an over abundance of students with behaviour issues, but we are not. We are just a regular little public school. Each class has their share of students with behaviour concerns. We have a great staff and everyone has a good sense of humour. Some days... or weeks you really need it. And ear plugs in the Autism classes like mine, might be a good idea too. A few teachers are planning on celebrating the end of the week at a local bar.... a chance to laugh and talk before transitioning back to their families for the weekend. Of course it also happened to be treat day in the staff room today so the extra sugary treats were also greatly appreciated. I was happy to only have a half day today although my students were awesome today! |
