School has been interesting. I have a unique mix this year. I had a student who has been giving me a very hard time, out of seat, not doing work, but is a very smart kid. I finally had to write up a student contract with him, and if he does well I will give him a treat.
This is what happened yesterday:
"Mrs. R can I have my treat now?" student.
"Yes, but first, how did you feel you did in class today? Scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest." Me.
"Uhm, probably a 5." student
"Does a 5 deserve a sucker?" me.
"Yes." student
I pulled out a sucker and a hammer. Broke the sucker in half and gave him half a sucker.
He did much better in class today.
