They never say thank you.
Today began the wonderful 3 week event of bball tournaments. Lives, school, work, all get disrupted for some friendly competition. Woo.
Alg2- due to my helping set things up for the coaches/referees room, I got jack squat done except braiding hair. Another day down the drain. The kids don't mind. I do.
Alg1- they are not my favorites right now (not that they ever are, but they have grown on me a little bit). They wanted to watch the games so I said fine, we just need to get through our packet so I will go fast and this has been a two-day packet in the past. While I'm happy to say that we blazed through that sucker in 40 minutes, this was not fast enough for them and they tried to blow me off when it came to helping them get started with practice problems. Then as they dashed out the door, they didn't bother to say thank you or anything for allowing them to go early. So tomorrow they will have a quiz and another packet plus I will not offer help on practice problems. I will do my best to waste time as they do EVERY day. It is a privilege, not a right to go out and watch games. Turds.
MMA - they had a test. They took their test. When done, they asked to go to the game. I said sure, since you're done. They said thank you and headed out the door. Asked if there was anything else they needed to do before they left. Bless them.
Geo- had a test in there as well. They took a while to settle down so I waited to hand out their test. They also wanted to watch games but last year a couple kids went to watch games and they didn't finish their work. So they had to stay this time and i did my best to make sure they didn't get to leave early (totally worked today). They thought a 14 question test would be a breeze. Muhahaha. It was a very involved 14 questions. Hahaha!
Yearbook- marked my kids absent since they didn't check in. Saw them as I was leaving school. Oh well. Maybe you ought to check in every now and then. I sure as heck will not be looking for you.
Tomorrow will be busy. Have lots to do and not much time, blargh. I already wrote this post (but it got deleted due to a wrong button so this is my 2nd time doing this). I am bored and tired so I'm out. Laters.
