Anger


Today I became very angry and had to physicaly bite my tongue. A student in my 10:30 class received a call on his cell phone and he answered it. I looked at him shocked but he just raised his voice. I gave him an awful stare and bit my tongue so I would not use the m...f... word and much worst on him. He calmly stood up and anounced to the class that he has to get to work.
I finished my lecture and got ready for my class at noon. The Dean came to evaluate my noon class and I was still shook up. I think I did allright but I know I was not spectacular (there is too many I in that sentence).
I believe there is something wrong with this student, he is the same student I wrote about on September 16 . He lacks impulse control. I have not seen anything like him since I left my job as a special education teacher in LAUSD.
I have to break out my special education teacher training and explain this young man that his behavior will not be tolerated in my class.
