Terrific Choice

Teacher leaves me no instructions. I am a last second substitute I will be here an hour, and I have no idea what I am doing. One of the six-year-olds begins twerking. An obscene dance, if you know something. At home it might be considered funny. I call him over and ask if he wants to sit with me. I am old school, no nonsense, no play when you are in the wrong. He decides he does want to sit with me. Terrific choice. This eliminates any chance I could have had for my own playtime. Oh well, I did not need free time anyway.
