Is It Me?

Well...this is my first attempt at blogging. I will probably write alot about school since that is where I spend a majority amount of my time. I am the teacher! That's what I keep telling myself. Even though I do find that I learn a whole lot from my students too. I am the computer lab teacher. I have one class that really tests my patience. I have always been a patient person. It came easily. But it seems with this particular group of kids.....it somehow disappears. Makes me wonder....Is it me? Or is it the kids? Is it because I am getting older? Ah...no..it couldn't be that. : ) Anyway, these particular students will do whatever they can to irritate me. I think they have been this way for so long and with each other in the same class for so long that they just are used to getting in trouble that they continue to do it. I have a plan though. I will try the good ole reward system. Hopefully that will peak some interest with at least some of them. I will try that when they come to class next Tuesday. I'll let you know what happens! The positive side to all of this is that out of the 35 classes I see each week...that is the ONE and ONLY class that I dread. Not a bad percentage, huh?
