Yesterday I had the first half of my kids. Introduction to Art and Drawing/Painting classes. Pretty cool, one kid got dragged in by the asst. principal, you know that's a good sign! Today had some interesting stories, taught Intro to Art and Photography. I played "get to know you games" in each class, and had some interesting tid-bits about my students:"My name is ____, and I'm pregnant. I just wanted to tell you guys so you don't ask when you see me getting bigger."
Another game I played in a different class, ask your partner some questions and then report back to the class:
"I asked her if she had any kids, she said no." (he was so serious too)
I have a student that doesn't speak--at all. Physically cannot (also can't write or read or barely hold a pencil). So I asked her some questions, and her responses were with a smile--wild right?
In discussing our class, a student raised his hand asking if he could draw gang signs in my class..."uh no, I'd report you to the police, don't even try".
I am pretty exhausted, but having some great laughs. It's gonna be a good year, just gotta get in the swing of things...
