Another Day, Another Dollar

I am looking around the room ... one girl is spinning in circles as though she is a human helicopter; one student snuggling with the bunny; another trying to play "Don't Stop Believin'" on the keyboard; three playing Free Rider on the computer; two lip singing to "Carry On My Wayward Son" by Kansas; and another group playing with Legos. Yet another just asked me to use the phone so she could thank her mom for bringing her lunch. Kids are strangely interesting.

Earlier this week, another teacher was talking with me about a prospective future student. This student stated that she wanted to be in my class next year and her current teacher inquired why. The student's response: "because Becky let's her kids do whatever they want".

Quite a reputation I have.
