Even though it is early in the year, I already have a number
of sick students. I am absolutely astounded at how loud a 6th grade
boy can blow his nose. Some of my “nose
blowers” sound like a race car flying around the track, or a musical instrument
of some sort. Sometimes when the “nose
blower” starts, I will actually glance around the room thinking everyone is
going to be snickering or disgusted; however, they are usually all on task and appear
to be oblivious to the racket. It is probably
just as well that they appear to be unaware that there is suddenly a herd of
elephants in the classroom because I might accidentally give them my, “I know,
right?” look. Maybe when I see a student
approach the Kleenex box, I should announce, “Everybody take cover!”
