Salem Black
I've only had my students for two days and their personalities are already starting to show.
I have my crazy kids, my quiet kids, my know-it-alls, and what I like to call my 'normal kids' they are just as special as the others however they don't fit into any of those categories.
Right now school had began an hour ago. The kids and I had breakfast then our morning meeting. After that I had them sit at their tables to practice their handwriting. It's good for the most part but I know with a little more practice they will be able to do better.
That's the type of teacher I am. If I see something I don't like I'm going to do everything I possibly can to change it to something I like.
All teachers should be like this but unfortunately they aren't and they give teachers like me a bad rep.
As I walked around the classroom observing the tables I noticed a few things that needs to be fixed.
"Hey, December, your e's are backwards babe." I whispered.
"Oh." The girl frowned.
"It's okay! Just make sure- do you know your left from your right?"
She gave me a small nod
"Good. Just make sure your 'e' is facing the right side.
I had her try it again and this time she had it right. Good for her.
I walked around some more helping whoever needed help. After that it was time for special. They had art this morning which made a good chunk of them excited. I love seeing this as a teacher. Watching your students get excited about being able to express their creativity will always pull at the heart strings.
Its truly a heart warming sight.
"Alright put your pencils in your desk and open up your ears. We're going to go to the art room for the first time so listen carefully. I need numbers one to thirteen to line up. That would be..Halo, Melody, December, Logan, Charlie, Rhodes, Valentine, Elliot, Avarice, Rowan, Ivory, Vera, and Cassidy."
All thirteen of them got up and shuffled over to the door. I didn't have time to creat jobs so my line leader would be Halo since she's number one. I'm hoping to get it done by the end of the week so that next week they could apply.
"Alright now fourteen to twenty two line up. If you aren't sure fourteen to twenty two is Violet, Mika, Isla, Esme, Atticus, Noah, Xavier, Hayden, and Rylee."
The others got in line and I grabbed my behavior stick. All it was, was a yard stick with clothes pins on it. On the clothes pins were the names and the yard stick itself was just a yard stick with different colors. Each color stood for something different.
At the bottom was red which meant their having a bad day and I would contact their parents. Then there was orange which meant they aren't having the best day and if they didn't get it together we were going to have some issues. Then there was yellow which is a warning. Green was the default color. Blue meant they were having a good day, purple meant they were having a great day, and white meant they were having an outstanding day.
I love white.
I dropped the kids off at the art room and went back to the class room to set up the next activity. It was something simple; just more handwriting practice however this time I chose to make it fun.
I brought twenty two plastic trays and five bottles of shaving cream from dollar tree. I walked around the class and placed two bottles and four trays on each table. One table obviously had an extra considering I had an odd number of students.
The rest of the set up would happen after I picked the kids up. For now my focus was on what I wanted to eat for lunch. I usually pack my lunch but I was running late because Binx and Beast decided to act like they snorted three lines of crack this morning. I would have to DoorDash food which I wasn't looking forward too.
I hate having to spend money on takeout.
Maybe Raven could give me some of her food... she more than likely won't but it's worth a shot. Or maybe it isn't. I don't know.
Rylee's Annoying Ass Mama
Hey...
No
Whatever it is,
my answer is no
You didn't even
give me a chance ð
I don't need to. I
know you're gonna
end up asking me
some stupid shit
No I wasn't ð
What do you want,
Salem?
What did Ashley
pack you ?
Leftovers. Why?
I didn't get a chance
to make me something
this morning and I
thought as your
best friend you should
share because
sharing is caring
See the issue is
that I actually
don't care so I
don't have to
share anything
I hope she poisoned
your food. If I was
your wife I would've
poisoned you
Well thank god
you're not! But
you see, Salem, this
is why you're single.
Im single bc I want
to be ð
You keep telling
yourself that now
if you'd excuse me
I have a class to
teach
Screw you!
Ashley wouldn't
like that too much
Ashley would
allow it and
ask to join
You're right... I love
my wife
Raven and Ashley met in College. I actually set the two up because I got tired of them talking about each other to me.
Just tell the girl how you feel and leave me alone!
But anyways after they graduated- well after Raven graduated they got engaged and then Ashley graduated and they got married. I was Raven's best woman and when I say my best friend looked fucking scrumptious in that pants suit I fucking mean it.
If she wasn't annoying as fuck and not my best friend I would've married her myself! But Raven isn't my type to that would never happen.
Two years after they got married they began talking about kids. Ashley decided she would be the one to carry their first child and if they wished to have more Raven would carry that one. They went to planned parenthood and decided on a sperm donor. Thirty eight weeks and three days later Rylee James McKnight was born.
He's an annoying little shit but he's my annoying little shit and I love my godson.
Another twenty minutes went bye and soon enough me and my students were back in the class going over the activity I had planned.
"You have trays and shaving cream on your table- Logan we're not touching anything thing yet- and when I give you the okay you're going to grab a tray- not yet! Okay you're gonna grab a tray...now." I made sure everyone had a tray before continuing. "Ok now I'm going to come around and spray some shaving cream on the tray. For the love of god do not touch anything!"
It took me three minutes to get to everyone. That was my workout for today and I hate working out.
We finished the activity and moved on with our day. I didn't leave school til four! School is over at two-fifteen.
I picked up Beast and Binx from daycare, went home, made dinner, and got into bed. Today was tiring.
