Middle School is Supposed to be Fun




For some reason, the kids at school were really in good spirits today. It was the end of the second week of school. Maybe they are all in a groove now, remembering how much more fun it is to see all the other kids every day. As opposed to sitting on the couch in front of the tube at home.

Speaking of television, today all of my 70 students had to write an essay about a TV show. They also had the option of choosing a book, but they overwhelmingly choose shows. Man Versus Wild, Wild Boyz, and Family Guy. Ellen, Tyra Banks, Queen Bees, and America's Next Top Model. Sponge Bob Square Pants, Dora the Explorer, and Tom and Jerry. Thank you, god, for the ONE boy who wrote about the Harry Potter series. He mentions that Harry is courageous. I just love it that he wrote that.
