My middle school students are taking exams right now so a lot of my classes are quite empty. Sometimes this is good and sometimes it’s a bit difficult because if it’s only the ones that usually sit quietly and don’t talk, then I have to do all the work. That was almost the case in my last two classes today but thankfully they were behaved and worked hard for me ^^
The first class had one chatty girl and one boy that always says, “hello” but doesn’t say much else unless poked. We did the lesson and they talked to me a little but I had to drive the conversation mostly. The boy had asked to listen to ‘Number 1′ by ?? yesterday and today he asked me where he could download it. I said I’d e-mail it to him and I did when I got back from work. I even wrote the e-mail entirely in ??? :D
I thought I was onto a winner when the bell went because I hadn’t seen any students from my final class around. I was getting ready to go home when ?? came and said there was a student waiting in his class. I went in there and it was the new kid. I say ‘new’ but he’s been here two or three weeks now. So it was to be just the two of us *bursts into song* for the 45 minutes…I needn’t have been worried because although he was quiet, he was as polite, kind and generally pleasant as I could possibly have wished for. In class he’s quiet in comparison to the other students but he was forced to deal with me one-on-one which I felt bad about, but he dealt with it well. We laughed, asked questions about each other and did some studying too. He rocked my socks by saying, “I hope we can talk more later. You are a good teacher.” as he left *weeps* My students are adorable XD
On a side note, I am so going to go into Spris tomorrow morning and buy some shoes. I wanted to go in today but bottled it Dx
