Report Card Continued….

So here are the typewritten teacher comments for each of the 3 marking periods….I had 2 teachers – we changed classrooms for Math and Science…so they both had something to say about Elisabeth.

Apparently I was doing some “talking out of turn”, “visiting”, being irritable and defensive.   Hmmm – let’s think about this.  5th Grade – I turned 11 in the middle of the year, saw “the movie” about our soon-to-appear menstrual cycle (girls only of course) and was hitting puberty.  I think irritability and defensive is a little par for the course.  Either that, or I was just a big pain in the ass.  So it was probably a little of both.  Or maybe I was just bored.  In case you’ve forgotten Ms. Teacher, school can be a drag to a kid. 

The odd thing in all this poor conduct I was showing, I managed to get very good grades – mostly A’s with a B sprinkled in here and there for good measure.  So take that!!

Defensive.  I guess some things never change. 🙂
