Day 19, March 5

This was TCAP week for 9th and 10th graders so the schedule is a bit different.  I was in the class on Monday, and then only Tuesday and Friday.  The classes are blocks that usually go in the morning, but we are seeing then in the afternoon.  That was obvious because 1st hour was much more chatty.  They were supposed to be doing research individually, but most of them got off track and started to chat.  I think Mr. Craig allowed this because many still got their work done and it was a long day for then.  They were talking about old TV shows and Mr. Craig and I even joined in.  2nd hour is already chatty, so they were even more so.  The instigator, Kendra W, was back so that didn't help.  Unlike 1st hour they didn't get much work done they were really just gossiping.  It was really frustrating because they literally wouldn't stop, not even to listen to the homework.
