Tragedies and Victories

Wednesday was a...um...interesting...day.

It was an "assessment" day.

The problem with "assessment" days is that the teacher has to go through tests with students individually, and the students see it as a free time.

this can be detrimental for both the teacher...and the helper.

so I was set to do reading group. now, under better circumstances, I would ADORE doing this, but unfortunately, I actually didn't quite get how the system worked. Aerisolphal usually did reading groups and I helped kids with their assignments, tending not to pay much attention.

Needless to say, reading groups that day were somewhat disastrous.

But the day did get better. I gave some kids their math test, and most of them were the more gifted ones, and those all helped to bring a smile to my face!

We all have good and bad days. Some days we get just what we want among our friends, our peers, and our work. Other days leave us a lot of trouble, stress, and hail.

But the future is looking a little better, and time moves on.
