teacher and bad kids. bad kids win today.

In the early phase of practicum, I was always motivated to teach. But today, I was very down and definitely feeling like quitting. I am not good in so many ways. I am still learning. I know I am not a good teacher but I guess kids are just being kids. Never bothered with adult's feelings.  I was being observed today. So the class started as usual except for there were few boys who came late. Trust me, there will always be. No matter how much you scold them, they will stay forever like that. So, I asked them to take a sit. I continued teaching.  While teaching, there were two students who were playing while I was teaching. I warned them. But they definitely ignored my warning. Do you know it is super disappointing when you were trying very hard to teach but the kids are just playing around there and not listening to you? It takes half of my energy away. So, I leave them be. I couldn't scold them so much since the PK1 was observing me. I ignored them. I totally ignored
