I can't seem to write as often as I should these days, not because I don't have stories to tell, (goodness knows I have children and classroom stories to tell almost everyday), but because I just don't feel like writing. I feel guilty everytime I read something other than my next lesson because there are lots of things to do and as usual, I'm procrastinating.
Like what I'm doing now.
Anyway, I just felt guilty again because I'm trying hard not to think of the consequences of what I did to 3 of my pupils yesterday when I made them cry. I thought hard and couldn't think of one incident when they cried because of their professor but I made them cry because I humiliated them in front of the class.
Gah!
I'm a bad teacher and I haven't even started.
I'm thinking of other ways and means of how to handle the situation without humiliating the pupils and or/ short of punishing them physically.
I hope in time I'll learn how to be effective without traumatizing the children.
