First day at school.

My first class was 1 SY, quite a cute class, I just gave them penmanship to do while I sat there starving(I had left my food in the car), or maybe just stirring to allow a few to go to the washroom. What I discovered was that each girl had their own whiteboard, and could draw on it whenever they wanted. The only problem was, the board would become dirty, which would end up in a whole crowd of girls at the sink spraying water everywhere. Then soap suds started coming out from the pipes, so i had to tell them not to use soap. One group let a whiteboard eraser come in contact with water, and still used it to wipe the board. Of course, the obvious happened. The white board turned purple and wet, so I gave them a mound of tissue.

Next was P3, which wasn't so bad given it was 30 min and they were doing a test. Then it was another P1 class to make them do their chinese magazine. And then back to 1 SY to take over art. So there was a huge tantrum later cos I had a special needs girl in my class, and she insisted on sitting together with her classmates to draw. Problem was, she was originally told to sit in front of the teacher and not with the others, so the classmates politely refused, then the girl started pinching and beating people, so I had to intervene and explain but none would give in, so I had to call in the teacher. P1s can really start a fight over everything, but unlike boys its more verbal and there's always a lot of crying, so I have to be counsellor as well.

I think I can get used to this job.
