A Delight

What a delight it is to watch my students take their mid-term tests. Their expressions are priceless. They frown. They scratch their heads and other parts of their anatomy. They twirl their hair. They slump. They stretch. They cross their legs. They stare blankly at the pages. Their heads are full of thoughts like.....'Maybe I should have believed her when she said to study this.'.....'I wonder how bad this is gonna hurt my grade.' I wonder if my mom is going to find out my grade before Christmas.'.....'I wonder if I'm going to be sitting through this class next year.'.......'I wonder if I can write really sloppily and she can't read it, if she'll just count it right.'....I wonder what conjugate a verb means'...'I wonder if we'll get a curve....nah, I know we won't'......I wonder why this is happening to me!' Room 11 on the Hill becomes a movie on these days...or a zoo.....actually both. I think ....I Bought a Zoo. I love my life!!
