A little summertime violence

In all of my criminal justice classes, we always talked about how the hot weather makes southerners a little more violent than usual. We had an episode out here Sunday afternoon where someone decided to fire a couple of rounds at someone else. Everything ended ok and off to jail they went. The Sheriff's Office is doing a little patrolling tonight so hopefully that keeps the drama to a minimum.

Reading Group is going slowly but surely. I'm already running out of ideas and we're on day 3 tomorrow. Not a good look but I don't have the crutch of a classroom full of supplies so I guess I'll really have to get creative. My student is incredibly bored and doesn't want to be there so that doesn't help things for me. I hate to start off as one of those teachers whose creative juices stop flowing the minute the students are dismissed for the summer but that's how I feel. I need some motivation quick.
