I admit it, I'm a slacker. I actually blog in my head all of the time. I come up with all kinds of things to talk about. I just don't ever actually sit at the computer and write it down. I just haven't felt like it lately.
But here I sit....subbing for an 8th grade math class. The students are all working on their assignment....and I am bored. Fortunately, none of these kids have asked for my help. If they did, I would just refer them to the smart kids in the class. Most of you know that math is not my strong point. I am here to keep order in the classroom. I should mention that several of the students laughed when I introduced myself today. They just love my name. I always get a reaction. Subbing is kind of fun for me. I prefer middle school. All the students come to the classroom on their own. They can go to the bathroom by themselves. They can work independently. I enjoy teasing and talking with the students.
I actually subbed for one of Lauren's classes not too long ago. She asked me to go by another name so that nobody would know that I was her Mom. I introduced myself as "Mrs. Davis." I really tried to be believable. Lauren's friends just didn't buy it. Lauren needs to realize that I'm not so bad. I try to be a pretty cool Mom.... and sub.
