It's So weird to me that you're a teacher! only because I graduated high school last year and although I generally liked my teachers, as a student I always kind of figured they only existed during school hours. Reading your blog feels like sneaking into the teachers lounge (which even in high school is still the most mysterious place on school grounds.)<br /><br />I wish I had teachers who wrote awesome novels about elves and vampires! Mine always chastised me and rolled their eyes when they caught me reading fantasy novels under my desk. <br /><br />I wonder if any of my old teachers has a blog?!<br /><br />Anyway, don't worry too much about the mean girl. She's probably just like Cory and needs something to pull her out of her world hating. In my opinion the easiest way's to get on a class's good side are to either have a movie day or to teach class outside every once in a while. Being inside of a high school kind of sucks the joy out of a person, but who can be mean and snarky when in the sunshine?vgannikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378518072922299543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-66387543306095381452009-09-07T08:09:32.059-07:002009-09-07T08:09:32.059-07:00Sorry to hear about the ipod.

Poor...boo on the ipod, yay on the considerate kid.<br /><br />Poor mate. My brother plays soccer - in a tiny weeny little team, the Kew Green FC. It plays in a league that doesn't even make the local papers and is sponsored by the local pub. They can't practice if their main opposition is, because they both share the same sports centre as a home base.<br /><br />He also supports Brentford FC (which hardly anyone outside of the immediate area actually knows about unless they see the name on the tv) which seems to be an exercise in heartbreak.<br /><br />He's been playing since he was very small, and he has endless admiration for the man who first coached him - small league soccer seems to be a fairly thankless task - but tell mate someday he will meet one of his coachees who will tell him how Mate changed his life... even if it doesn't help now.<br /><br />Hope next week is better.Louizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691100508790921779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-33826796876641902702009-09-06T12:30:44.118-07:002009-09-06T12:30:44.118-07:00Next time, by an ipod and a cheap-assed MP3 player...Next time, by an ipod and a cheap-assed MP3 player.

It's about running around, getting exercise, and learning to play nice with other kids. The ball and the rules provide a reference point.
