Full moon + Grade 5 = NIGHTMARE

I never really believed in the full moon rumors. You know the ones where kids behave badly on full moon days. That was before I started teaching. Sweet Jesus in Heaven, I have never been so close to losing my patience in a classroom... ever. Every kid in the class had to be talked to today for behavior issues. Even the good ones. The ones that make you smile all the time and always do their work. Needless to say, it was a rough day with grade 5. Hopefully now that the lunar cycle is on a downward spiral things will improve this week.
