(I'm not sure what I think about the notion that this has to be covered in school in 4th grade [even just for a lesson].) Thankfully most of the lesson was a video. Discussion followed. At least we separated the sexes – I had to host all the 4th grade boys. There was much snorting and giggling. When my regular class reconvened some of them continued asking questions, so we had a little "mixed" discussion after all. They handled it surprisingly well. I kinda' had to "shock" them a little bit with composure and an unembarrassed casualness about the whole thing. A sex lesson wouldn't be an ideal one for a sub', though.<BR/><BR/>With that puberty book, you don't think one of the kids snuck it into the pile to see if you would read or cover it, or was that not possible? (When I subbed years back, I was victim of some similarly devious pranks.) I doubt the <I>teacher</I> would have put it in the pile as a joke or dare … I don't know any teachers who'd be <I>that</I> sadistic.Babahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08342247794193981287noreply@blogger.com
