This was a late start day.  It was also a day where there was an assembly.  I don’t think that was the best idea in the world.  But I didn’t have to bring any kids down there so it’s not a big deal to me.

What is a big deal was the scheduling for that day.  Originally it was the normal late start schedule.  Then we moved onto one that took the assembly into consideration.  Then during class a different schedule was emailed to everyone.  Since I couldn’t see the email^[1] I let the kids out “early.”  They came back to pointless time.

From there it was smooth sailing since I finally had the final version of the schedule.  The best part was that the plans left by the teacher were to finish working on a piece they’d started already.  No explaining for me at all, just making sure they do the work.  Which is fine in an art class because even though I can’t help I can still walk around and see what everyone is doing.

1. The teachers should be teaching, not checking email during class time.  And they wouldn’t have sent it to me anyway since I’m just a sub. [↩]

Another day in Language Arts.  On this one, the kids had to read something and answer questions.  Of course it was something I’d never even heard of so I couldn’t help with that.  Of course it had to be reading, something I can’t really help with anyway.  But the kids behaved, that’s all I can ask for on days like this.
