things that make me smile and frown

The best thing about working with kids, is that most of them really like you! I walked into my classroom today and one of the girls, said "Hi Ms.G!" She is a sweetheart!! She's not very talkative, but she always likes getting my help! One day as we were having our outside free time, she asked me if I was married and I told her that it was personal information, but no I am not. But, I can tell how she can get that, there is a difference between calling someone Mrs. and Ms and that I should be called Ms. After talking some time about what other kids call me and what my student calls me(my student calls me Ms.Maggie or Maggie.) the little girl said "you are nice and very cool! So much better than the last helper 'student' had!" Just made my day that day! Love kids sometimes!!!

What I don't love are my little cockroach friends. I don't mean to be mean to them, since I know they want to be my friend by crawling all around my room, but this is not the place for them. Don't they know what dangers lie ahead of them when they walk into my room? There are feet which will stomp on them, poisonous traps which attract them and a sticky thing which they will get stuck on. Not a safe environment for little creepy crawlers. They belong outside in the wild with other little creatures not inside.
Now for a poem for the roaches:
You crawl in my room with your little legs and hard shells
Move those antennas to smell the smells you want to smell
You crawl up and down and all around
But I do not want to see you on my ground!
So, move your little bodies to another place
And your self a nice safe space
For this room is not a good spot for you
That is all I need to say to you.


Its beautiful out, thank you spring for finally peeping your head out of the covers! We needed to see you, so please stay around for awhile!
