"1 2 3... Naked!"

I wonder what it would be like to have two good days in a row. I'm serious, it hasn't happened yet. Every time I think we're doing better and getting somewhere, we just move ten steps back the next day. I had so many kids off task today, it was ridiculous. Not to mention some bigger discipline problems - like pushing each other down the slide, saying shit, and stomping on each other's feet. Delightful.

Anyway, there were a couple of funny things to help get me through the day at least. If you've been reading this blog of mine, then you've noticed that Nathan is the most hilarious one because he says the most ridiculous things. Today he came up to me and said, in all seriousness, "When two moons come out, it means that the alien world is real close. And then if the sky turns real red, it means they are going to attack." 

Later in the afternoon, Nathan and Everett were reading the book No, David! By David Shannon. There's an illustration where the bad little boy, David, is running down the street naked, so you see his naked little butt. While I was trying to work one-on-one with a student, the boys were going around the room and holding up the book to other kids saying, "1...2...3..." and then they'd open the book to that picture and yell "NAKED!!"
