Oh, bless. Reminds me of the time my mum had to go and collect my brother from school because he bit someone on the bottom. It was the red food colouring in the Birthday Lolly he'd had, it always sent him bonkers. Gosh, infant school kids are charming from a suitable distance.
I got thrown out of the choir for picking my nose and flicking bogeys at Raymond Hawley during assembly. The fact that I couldn't sing didn't seem to enter the equation.
Does Ibrahim actually have a fat bum? And if so, could Abu use this fact as mitigating circumstances? And was it spelled correctly?
And what the flip is this happy/sad face malarkey?
Oh, I hear that there was a little drama with... almost every day. I think my son and Abu Saeed could be quite good friends.
Clearly it wasn't Ibrahim who had a fat bum but his work, in a surreal twist.
Violet - hahahaha! Get your brother - most people would be content with biting an ear, maybe a finger... No, he went for it bigtime. Yes, & sugar rush + small children is also a combination I have learned to avoid.
Tim - ewwww! Dirty little boy... Ibrahim does not have a fat bum, though I realised I've been in this game too long when on reading 'fat bum' I found myself thinking 'Great, Abu Saeed is starting to apply his phonic strategies to spell CVC words.'
Smiley face/sad face is a behaviour strategy we use lots in Key Stage One (the infants) - I think people should start using it in offices too, eg, 'Tim, you have been flicking bogeys at your colleagues again - I'm going to write your name under the sad face.'
Taiga - from the teacher's point of view, I have to remind myself to tell the parents good things and not just talk to them to have a moan...
Billy - right! Maybe Abu Saeed shows early promise as a literary critic.
When the cat's away...
Absolutely. There's no messing about when I'm around...
