Day 8: Anticipating Omar

Thursday January 26, 2012 Blog

Nothing yet from Omar. I told him I'd give him glue if he needed to and he said, "I've got it Mrs." He told me that his cousin next door has some. He's been leaving his backpack in the room with me before he goes to lunch. The flag art the students are creating has come out quite beautiful. They are almost done. Students have had a hands on way of learning about one another's countries. There is a new boy in class and I got him caught up to where all the other students were just about. It was nice to see Tommy put all his talking to good use by taking him under his wing explaining what we were doing and letting him know the drill for the school and where to go throughout the day.

In the 8th grade class a few students arrived early one asked me if the rainbow car was mine. I said yes. She told me she loved it. Another student asked me if I just got married. I said oh did you see the just married writing on the back window. He said yes. I told him yes i did a few months ago but just haven't had the time to take that off the window. He said I don't mean to be rude but did you marry a woman or a man. I told him a woman. The girl who first asked me about it told me she supports me all the way and said congratulations. i said thank you. one of the boys who has been saying anti gay comments all along said ewe everyone picks on that car. that's your car? i said yes. he said no one likes it. i said plenty of people like it and i like it. there's a whole story behind it and i made a movie about it. i am going to show you some of it. he said no i didn't because if i made a movie he would've seen it. i told him its on netflix.
