I ran into a student on my way out of the building this afternoon. "We had a really good class today!" she told me.
I considered the compliment. She is in my largest class, which is also the last class of the day. We have a lot of big personalities in there as well, so things don't always go exactly as planned. Some days it seems like I have to do more than the average share of redirecting in there, but today, with the benefit of new seats and a fun activity, they had seemed pretty engaged.
"Thanks!" I said. "I'm glad you liked the lesson!"
She looked at me blankly for a minute, and then recovered. "Yeah!" she replied, "and no one got in trouble, either."
