Stickers. Sayyyyy Wuuuuuuutttt?!

Stickers are the end all, BE ALL for these kids. I tell them there are stickers at the end of class if they're good and .... BAM! Sitting still, sitting quietly, looking at me.

Muwahahaha~ Little do they know that I only told them about stickers to let them know I have stickers. From now on~~~~ I will not say "If you're good and pay attention, you will get a sticker." Hoooooooo no. They are going to have to work for them without the incentive being stated beforehand. HAHA!

... Watch it backfire on me. :)

Oh, and the whooole "Look, look, look at me." thing. Works. I tried the clapping and the students would follow me, but it was more of a... "Wtf is Teacher Skye doing?" "Hell if I know. Just do what she says..." type of response. The "Look, look... " gets their attention and everything. However, I'm trying to get my 3rd & 4th graders to become quiet after doing it once. Today it took two or three times before they'd all be paying attention.


Ahhh~ and I wasn't feeling well this past weekend nor earlier today. The school's lunch today almost killed me. Not that it was too different from the lunches every other day, but it was just ~ not what my stomach wanted. I tried to eat as much of it as I could, but I ended up eating soup. All of it, but I left almost everything else. Unfortunately~ they had spaghetti today and my not eating it translated to it not being tasty. I didn't even try to explain that it wasn't that the spaghetti wasn't delicious. It actually tasted pretty good, but my stomach just wasn't going to take it. *sigh* Lost in Translation.... It's a black toe thing. = =;

Okay.. now.. is lazy time. So have a look at these pictures ^^:

Fifth and sixth grade boys playing with their phones.

My bruise is finally turning lovely shades of green and purple...

The super intelligent and creative folder for my super intelligent and creative 1st and 2nd graders. :))

They were a necessary purchased. I swear.
