Pits Up

As an educator, I realize that all of you parents think that your child is perfect. You probably think that they even smell perfect. Well, as a person who cares about your child but knows the truth, let me fill you in on a tiny secret: your child will not smell perfect forever. Once they hit the fourth grade (or in some cases third grade) please tell them to lift their arms so you can teach them how to apply deodorant. Degree, Secret, Old Spice, I really don't care; just pick one and have them wear it every day.

I subbed fourth grade the last two days. For the most part it went smoothly. Today kids started talking back to me and I totally wasn't having it. I am becoming excellent at perfecting my evil glare. I did, however, have some of my third grade students from last year in my class which was totally awesome. I missed them so much. It kind of makes me sad because they have all changed so much in such a short amount of time. I don't want them to grow up. I'm really glad I was able to be in the classroom with them today. What a great experience to see how far they have already come since last year.

Tomorrow I am subbing at UHS. It is always awkward to run into my former teachers. I tend to hide in the classroom all day.

Quotes of the day:

1.
You look like the next Miss. USA!

2.
Miss Hobbs, I loved you when you were my student teacher and I loved you as my sub. Can you come back tomorrow?
