To wit:
-Hunker down, study hard, stay on top of things...the end is in sight, "I can do this." - roughly 15%
-Show up, take up my seat in class, cruise through assignments, assessments and notes; generally go unnoticed by Mr. Moore - 30%
-Begin showing aggressive signs of Spring Fever, talk loudly in class, become as easily distracted as a degenerate gambler in the Sports Book at Caesars - 50%
-"I'm done, I will run amok, do not interfere with this process!" - 5%
Good times! Thankfully, there are speeches to be given, peer evaluations to be completed, and Unit tests to be taken. Oh 6th graders, I shall meet your irresistible force with my immovable object!!
Great slice! My 7th graders are also impatiently waiting for their spring vacation to arrive. I am, too! I think 80% of my students (including their teacher) are demonstrating "distracted as a degenerate gambler" behavior.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
This is a theme happening in middle schools everywhere at this time. I agree with your percentages. I liked your line about meeting students with immovable objects.
