Grade Ten

Today I had to teach my grade ten novel class by myself (usually I teach with a Taiwanese English teacher). It was one of those times in your life when you are just waiting for it to be over with. Highlight? I misspelled Adreniline on the board and I had three students whip out their dictionaries to correct me (although they said Adrenalin, which isn't right either). One of the students walked with me to the office afterwards to get a paper, and he said "Teacher, you're sweating." I felt like laughing at him. Yes, after an hour of standing in front of 47 grade ten students trying to teach something I feel totally incompetent in, I am sweating.
