What a day ! One of the kids in class decided today would be 'Hate Teachers Day' and has therefore spent the morning doing his best to get the rest of the children on side, which isn't that hard. After refusing to work and lots of chances he was very reluctantly taken to the chill out room.
Maybe a little late as we only have five weeks left but I am finally going on a restraining course. It is much needed and possibly too little too late but there you go.
I found out today a child who I used to work with is in hospital very ill with a brain tumor we told the class today they seemed fine with it, asking lots of questions.

Matthews goldfish died last night - he has had it for about 4 years. He doesn't know yet, but I will tell him when he comes home. Also as if that wasn't bad enough, his new frosty mug is broken. He wont be a happy bunny :-(
