My kids prior to the holiday break have been very anxious and
volatile this week. I ask them did they have the bipolar virus. They
probally need a break from us as we need from them. Hopefully the break will give them time to refocus and get prepared for the home stretch. At the alternative school in December we will have students exiting from the program who have met the requirements. So that may also a contributing factor to some of the unrest.
I think my kids also have the bi-polar virus. As I said a couple of weeks ago, my kids are ready for Christmas break, not Thanksgiving. Their attention span drifts in and out. I could have posted on the marker board in big bold letters and someone will walk to me 15 minutes into class after I have explained exactly what they are supposed to be doing and have told them that it is one the board and ask me what they are supposed to be doing. I know we are not supposed to use sarcasm, but when someone almost asks for you to reply that way, I don't see why you can't! Please tell me if a vaccine becomes available for the bi-polar. I need about 90 doses for my room alone. My wife says she needs 20!
