The Longest Week of the School Year

Yes.  That is right.  Every moment of this week just seems to drag on and on!

You might think that the last week of the school year would feel the longest.

Nope.  It is the week before Christmas Break that claims that dubious distinction.

Ah!  The kids are so hyper!  Not only are they excited about the break from school, but they are doubly excited about the prospect of Christmas!  It makes them so distracted that, academically speaking, the entire week is a complete waste.  In terms of discipline, it is a disaster.

So, each class period feels like it lasts twice as long, yet the kids won't settle down to learn anything of real value.

Two days down.  Three to go.
