It’s official I am sick! I think it’s just a cold, but I feel horrible. It’s hard to teach 24 seven year olds when you feel like total crap.
By the end of the day, I gave up, I sat down and explained that I will fall over if I stand, so I will write on the bottom of the board that I can reach from the chair. It was at this point I had the best conversation ever, with one of my kids.
Him: Ms. Z, you should go home.
Me: I can’t go home, I will be fine.
Him: I think you need to go home now.
Me: Are you trying to get rid of me? I bet you just want a new teacher.
Him: I just think it’s what is best for you.
Me: Aww....thank you! I love you.
Now I think it’s time for a nap before dinner. I wouldn’t want to miss work tomorrow.
