Demon Beasts

Evaluation is over- I haven't gotten the results yet, but may I just say that my 4th hour class has many members who were spawned from the bowels of Hell?! Without going into all the awful details, let me tell you that even some of my normally great kids picked that day to lose their stinking minds! To top it off, we had a fire drill in the middle of class, and they behaved less than perfectly... *sigh* I didn't have to worry about not receiving a score of excellent; I'll be lucky if I achieved "satisfactory". I'm working on a new strategy as we speak- the class is going to be divided between kids who follow directions, and therefore get to work in labs and do fun stuff, and kids who do not follow directions, and sit in their seats doing worksheets and not speaking. I'll keep you updated.

Ilia's sister is being moved to a rehab center! She's trying to speak and seems to understand what's going on around her, so that's very exciting news! Medicine is incredible, and doctors are true heroes in my book.

Have a great day!
