Most Fridays I hold detention for the students that are not doing their homework or are tardy ALOT! So the class became very chatty today.....very weird for a Monday, so I reminded them that if anyone is not following the class rules then they will have to add their name to the detention list for Friday. "All right ladies and gentlemen. I need to remind you of the uelsof the class today. We do not talk without permission and we do not begin conversations unless they are Math and Science conversations! I need you to take control of yourselves and act like the 6th graders I know and love. Unless you are dying to spend an hour afterschool on Friday with me, then remember the rules!" I told the class. All of a sudden one boy raises his hand. "Ms. Torres, can I write my name on the list?" He asks. "Really?! You are dying to spend an hour with me afterschool in detention?" I ask. "Why not? I have nothing better to do afterschool anyway and it is better than going home, it is so boring.....so sure." he replied. Wow, I am not sure if I want to laugh at his comment or ....????? Needless to say, he will be here afterschool on friday!
