First verbal altercation almost escalating into a physical fight ~in my classroom~ of the year!
2 months in is not bad
#honestly it was fine#I don't think I could have handled it any better#and it ended and we all moved on#and it didn't ruin my day or anything 😊#unsure if I would have been able to brush it off as well if I didn't feel like I'd handled it well#and I have this icy kid who has answered my question twice in a row now! the ice is melting! I think I'm winning him over#it's probably weird that like it's my birthday and I honestly wouldn't want to be anywhere else#like that's how much I genuinely love my job#I got to share The Princess Bride (my fav movie) with one class! it's such a good movie and I CANNOT wait to discuss it with them#I just love being able to share things with them!#and helping them navigate things#Ialso got my first 'are you gay?'today so that was fun-Iwas honest that I didn't want to answer the question yet&they were really respectful#they were like contract????#but I also said 'but if you have a hypothesis - it's correct' I mean I'm the head of the Gay Straight Alliance for Christ's sake#I think flipping conflict in the classroom into an opportunity to help them navigate this moment is helpful#part of me is 'this isn't supposed to be part of my job' but also it is#I will say that it can't always be that - like sometimes they're not even able to see/hear you#today I had to say 'can you look at me' 'can you listen to me' like 15 times to the kid until he finally heard/saw me#he's a good kid but she was pushing his buttons and being straight up rude
