Since teachers aren't allowed to hit the kids anymore, my school has had to be a little more creative with punishment methods. It's become a lot more noisy in my hallway as a result - kids have to do more punitive yelling, apparently. I think this hurts me more than it phases the students. Anyway, what's worse than yelling is the cleaning - they've had the kids put some potent-smelling stuff on the floor and I feel sick from breathing the fumes. I imagine the kids must feel worse than I do, since I'm sitting here in a room instead of out in the hallway itself. Anyway, I wish they'd pick something non-toxic for the children to do, ha.
In other news, my co-teacher is humidifying our office by running an open hot water pot. Pretty sure that is both against the manufacturer's instructions and almost totally ineffective.
