First week of class - 1/2
Folks -
I've tried posting this three times, and it just disappears.... I've broken the message into two parts, in case somehow a page of text is *just too much* for MSOE to deal with... Folks - Whew, I finished the first week! I've got 4 sets of students, and a group of drop ins....? One group was like herding cats.... I should have been so lucky...? After the first week my "view from the front" is that about 40% of the students have some motivation, about 40% range from being dark, cool and withdrawn, to only having a benign interest in learning; the remaining 20% is split between kids that are really interested, and a few real trouble makers - sometimes the same kid... As for a "crisis of the week", I had a group of 'drop in' kids - they work for about a half hour during their lunch... and when they all left I noticed that one of them had just tagged the class door with spray paint.? I followed them all out, asked who did it, and of course, nobody knew.? I then said that the lunch work period was voluntary on my part, and that the shop would remain closed for lunchtime work until the responsible person came forward.? I had the kid clean up the paint, and told him I may make him paint the door....?? I've reconsidered that tho'? - I want to be more constructive... maybe making some push sticks. |

Maybe a problem with your newsreader or ISP?? |
