Here it is…my very first post of the brand new school year. I can’t believe it has taken me so long. There have been so many blog worthy moments I had trouble choosing AND my class is quite the handful this year so when I leave school i’m usually headed straight to the bar or straight home to bed.
This group of kiddos will definitely make for an interesting/fun year, and I mean that in the nicest way possible
This particular story is about a boy I am still trying to figure out. He is probably one of my most “fun” kids
In writing class we were working on character books. Each student had to create one character and give me character traits, where they live, a problem they might have etc etc. We are going to use this book any time we get a case of writers block.
One of my most talented artists, Amber, drew this really elaborate picture of a woman with snakes for hair. It was her version of Medusa. So Amber bring me her picture and I am telling her how great it looks when Dane walks up and goes…”Oh wow…you drew a really good picture of Madonna.” Then he stops and thinks for a second and says “no, that’s not right…what is her name?”
I couldn’t answer right away, I had to stifle a laugh…because while the picture was not of Madonna…who knows, she has been known to do weird things…why wouldn’t she wear snakes in her hair?
