GRRRR

Urgh what a day.

Started off ok but had an icky tuesday feeling as i headed into work, maybe im a bit psychic, i just felt it wasnt a great day... hmm. Anyway, first period BAD YEAR 7's. I swear its mad how different a bunch of kids can be. My other group of yr 7's are lovely... totally sweet and hardworking. wheres these ones seem to think its fun to poke fun at each other, do SWEET F.A in terms of work and get away with cheeky backchat, Naaaaaat on my time. Had to pull out one kid for messing about and being rude when told to stop. And the others were no better... gotta think of a way of engaging them more in the subject, i cant believe a group so young have already become so dissalusioned with Art. most kids their age are happy to sit with paper and a pencil and draw for hours, these guys just think they can get away with doing nothing. its kindof depressing!

So that put me in a mood from the off, i hate giving detentions so early in the morning! The rest of the day was ok, made some good progress with the Yr 11 models, and some good discussion with my yr 8 PSHE group. I still find it amazing tht they've developed a whole subject just to educate kids on Personal, Social & Health issues... surely thats what parents do?!?! not in my day..... ahhh, im getting old!

Still, home now. So im gonna relax abit. Mum finally went to the supermarket so we have foooood at last. Plus she got me one of my fave squishy oatmeal & raisin cookies too. yum.
