I Was Mad

I was mad , as mad as a hornet ,
They made me so mad that I could yell,
And yell was something that I could never do ,
For I was mad , as mad as a hornet.


I was mad , as mad as a hornet ,
For my homework was never done ,
I asked why and they said they were busy watching Ben 10 !
I was mad , as mad as a hornet .


I was mad , as mad as a hornet ,
Someone had stepped on a pinky finger
And that made her cry,
For I was mad , as mad as a hornet .


I was mad , as mad as a hornet,
All I wanted was some peace and quiet ,
Till someone said , " I Love You Teacher,
and then I wasn't mad as a hornet anymore !

I Made Two Boys Cry Today.............. and I Loved It !!!

I made two boys cry today in class and I could not understand why. All I asked was for a little time , just a bit of time as I was not feeling too well . I asked them to read their flash cards while I took a five minute break , that was all I asked for . It was alright for awhile . They were spelling and going on and on until I heard giggles coming from a group of boys . I told them to be quiet and ................. that did not work out . Their giggles soon turned into laughter . The laughter was okay . But it got out of hand . They started to move ........... in all directions and the whole class ended up making so much noise . I looked at my watch it was 11.15 am . Another five minutes I would dismiss the class but no,me and my big mouth got the better of me . Here's where the action begins...............
I told all of the girls to get their school bags and line up . There were nine boys . I told the class that these boys were not going home . They were pretty cool alright . I got to give them some credit here . So out of the nine boys ,I told two boys to go get their bags . I went on till there were three boys . I proudly said to the three boys that they were not going home and that ........ before I could finish my sentence, the waterworks started . Okay I had no heart to see them crying so i gave them an option , apologize or just don't go home . We had a happy ending . They stopped crying and apologized to their one and only beautiful teacher !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In times like this , I feel sad to say thing like this to them but then again they leave me no choice at all . I mean , I warned them ( gently of course ) . Then I waited and gave them some time . But if all else fails then they leave me no choice . I have to do what I have to do . The great thing about these children are , no matter how angry you are with them or at times when you scold them , they do bounce back and they will approach you . Children are very forgiving towards their parents and teachers and for that I love working with them.
