Day Number Nine: 11th Grade Service Project

Since my classroom does not ever have classes on Fridays, today was my last day in each of the sessions. I feel that the day went remarkably well, even though the kids began to get cabin fever because we could not go outside as the temperature was below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Thankfully, none of the kids really acted up at all. I also found out that "David" had a mild concussion from hitting his head on something as he fell trying to support himself yesterday, apparently getting out of his chair from lunch. This concussion was the apparent cause of his vomiting and crying. It also worried me because while the afternoon session was outside yesterday he fell asleep in one of the teacher's arms (lap, whatever). This was apparently a real scare for the teachers (the entire incident), as they talked about it frequently during the day with what seemed to be almost a fear of lawsuit, repeatedly justifying their own actions to themselves. I suspect David's mother is probably a little more than miffed at the daycare staff, as any normal parent would be. Other than what I have mentioned (what I remember, it's all a blur) it was an average day, there were no long clingy goodbye sequences from any of the kids, in fact, I did not say goodbye to any of them, which I feel is for the best.
