Chilly.
First two classes went well this morning. I have been trying to go back to the gym since the beginning of March. For some reason, I can't go. Its cold outside and that is a huge deterent to go out to the gym because I know its just as cold inside the gym as it is outside and in my room. I don't know if its a body thing, not wanting to exercise and do strenuous activity in the cold or what, but it sure feels like it. I make the decision to go to the gym and when it comes to the time to go, I have no desire to go. I don't get it.
All the good students in my 6th grade classes were gone during the afternoon for some Chinese Language thingy. There was less kids in the class, so that seemed to help as well. The first class, I was trying to get the students involved and no one would participate because of their chinese cuture and I got angry with them. They make more of a scene refusing to go up to the front of the class than they would if they just went to the front of class and participated. Its a strange phenomenom. So at one point, this girl wouldn't go up and join her classmates so I sat on a desk and stared them all down. Anna spoke to them for a minute and there was more silence. I then started teaching again, and everyone participated, however, no one would join in any activities. Kindergarten went ok as well. I had the 2-4 year olds today.
Spent the rest of the nite doing video work.
Goodnite.
