I stayed for a longer time today. I worked for a while on my bulletin board. The students were very curious what it was and why I was doing it. I graded many papers, organized the bookshelf, and helped students find books that will help them on their research papers about animals. They were pretty distracted during their research due to the book fair being in the library. As a librarian I would have set books that might be use to the students in a different area. There were many students who threw tantrums today, and I felt Mrs. Bartholomay handled them very well. During the time she was reading, there were a few students who were being very disrespectful and walking around the classroom. For some reason today, the students were a bit wound up today. They were talking a lot, not listening to the teacher, or just bothering/tattling on each other.
