Im Sorry.

Last Thursday I was nearing the end of the day (a GREAT day, I might add) and all of the sudden I feel something hit my leg. I look down and to my surprise I see an eraser from the end of a pencil. Shocked and confused I raised my eyes and with the meanest voice I had in me I said, "Freeze." The class stared in anticipation as I glared at each one of them. I asked to see who had a pencil and much to my dismay each pencil had an eraser on the end. I quickly asked who had thrown the eraser....no reply, just blank stares.
About this time my CT walked in and was curious as to why class was stopped. After explaining to her the situation she proceeded to explain that this is no way to treat any person in authority. Their punishment? Each student had to write me an apology letter. Thus the need for a blog. I must share excerpts from some of these letters with you simply because I could not keep myself from chuckling when reading them:

From Alexis:
"If I find out who it was I will tell even if it was my friend. I hope you don't punch everybody because we have some really good kid in this class. I love music and people who are in violen wouldn't do it. Maybe if you look at the video if you have them and look to see who it was. If you don't have any you shoule get some and put them in the music room where the kid would lest expect it."

From Eric:
"I'm glad you don't have to learn because it is stressful...I know your glad about is that it is about the end of the week and you get a time with 2 days off."

From Kam Ron:
"I understand if you want to go back home. Or just make us sit in the dark for 45 mins and do nothing."

From Randy:
"That person shouldn't have done that because now the class has to write that's dumb and that person who did it should of thought."

The person came forward at the end of the day and I got to experience my 1st parent/teacher conference!!
