Almost lost it at one point today. We’re letter writing today. Writing letters to parents explaining what they have learned in all their classes. One student today, man, one student…He writes his rough draft, about five simples sentences. I am editing them with him there. He is supposed to go and make the changes. I give it back to him and he crumples it up. Right there in front of me, he crumples it up. I went off, explaining how he just slapped me in the face, telling me that I just wasted my time. I have talked to this kid before about education being a two-way street.
(Funny thing is: one of the things I edited is this sentence: I lerned to reed good.)
