Definitely a Monday

I was surprised to come back from the weekend to find an extremely good note from the substitute:

"Everything has gone very well today! I'm very impressed with your class. Your notes were great and very helpful. Thanks for having me, I'd love to do it again sometime. P.S. I don't know if you do any type of reward for good behavior with subs, but THIS group deserves it! (That's the first time I've suggested this, so be proud of your students!)"

Unfortunately they weren't able to keep that up today. I definitely let them know how proud I was of them for Friday though.

Funny quote of the day:

The kids were good in music, and the music teacher gave them each two Hershey Kisses. One student put his hand in his pocket and pulled it out with chocolate all over it. He was upset that his chocolate melted because he wanted to eat it--not because it made a mess. I told him, "Well, I guess now you know for next time that chocolate melts so don't put it in your pocket!" As they were walking out the door, his friend behind him said, "Hey! You should just turn your pocket inside out and lick it off!" ...the thought process of a first grader...
