An adoring student.

You know what? I love my students! They are the bestest! My student today J. is awsome! He has had a lot of family problems these past few weeks. So i've been trying to keep things happy and interesting at my table. He also has a lot of problems with his writing. His paragraphs are terrible, no matter how much detail he has. They are very jagged. No lie. Today, one of his writing assignments told him he needed to describe the physical characteristics of his favourite cartoon. He asked me if he could do one of his favourite people instead because he doesnt watch cartoons. So I let him. He started with the details they asked for... and at the same time i had J. i also had H. at my table. She needed some help with her reading. While i was helping her, i noticed that J. kept looking at me. Now, sitting at a rectangular table... i do have to continueously be able to watch all three kids (if i am teaching a full table - if not, then one or two) at the same time. So i dont know if he knew i was watching him while helping her. So when he finished, he had to write his paragraph describing this person. As usual, after our students edit their own work, we as teachers have to edit it. As i was reading it, it described me to a T. No lie. I'm pretty sure that he was describing me when he wrote about one of his favourite people. When I asked who he was refering to, he got all secretive and would not tell me about it. Knowing J. he would have told me who it was... I got another teacher to read it after and tell me what they think and she said it was me to a T. Considering that he was very nice in his description and had some very great describing words... What can I say... He is one of my favourite students!
