Sometimes, it IS them. I'm really tired of hearing, "Do we HAVE to write this?" "Do we HAVE to play this?" "Do we HAVE to show all of our work?"
Yes, yes you do. Last time I checked elementary school was not optional. When you grow up and go to college, then you can decide to skip class or not turn in assignments. But hey, I have an idea! Let's GET you to college first and then you can do what you want with that.
Granted, it is the week of Halloween and we have a 3 day school week, so the kids are totally preoccupied. This week is so short and yet so long. They're being good, but they are lazy right now. I think we all need a couple of days to recharge our batteries and our candy supplies to get us through til the end of the year.
Halloween parade tomorrow after school- I told the kids I'd dress up. They had a good time trying to guess my costume. One kid guessed "Superman" and I made a funny face. He quickly amended it to "Superman's sister."

They were totally spun out, which is why it was brilliant to have a short week and no school on Halloween.
Monday we get a fresh start...and a 4 day school week.
I was a pirate. It's been too hot to wear my HP cloak.
