Brave!

So on Friday we had proffesional development! We had some time to get into class advisors and decided what to talk about in our class meeting on Tuesday (Which is today)! Well our counciler was gone at a different school so we were talking about who would talk about what! Well when sophmores take their ISATs if they pass them then they never have to take them again. So in the meeting I voluntreed to talk about ISATs because I didn't want these students to end up in my class! I must have been smoking something because I also said that I would sing a song about it! When I was sitting in the meeting I was thinking about using this "I like good test score and I cannot lie. These other teachers can't denie!" But I didn't get farther then that, it is a good thing my friend Cami is a song making genus! Have you heard of the song "I wanna be a billionaire" (If you look it up make sure you get the clean version that is a mistake I won't make again) I think Burno Mars sings it! In front of the whole 361 sophmore class I sang:

You wanna be a graduate

So stinking bad

Passing reading math and language scores

Wanna shake Ross's hand

with your diploma

But you gotta rock your ISAT scores

Oh everytime you close your eyes

(After much persuation my friend Kristy and Terry Mitton said "What you see What you see")

You see your scores is shiny lights

Oh Yeah You know if you don't pass

They won't be com-passion-a-te

the world just cannot wait

for when your a graduate

Whooo Oh Oh Oh

(this part is rapped and lets face it now would ever say that Melissa could rap)

Yeah you gotta pass your

ISAT scores-a

I'm runnin' outa words-a

I'm gunna stop this rhymin'

cuz its hard to do the timin'

So it went off with a few problems! I sang the words I instead of you in the first line of the second staza (but I sang it again at the end of my talk because I told them when they take their ISATs they need to make to play it in their head) and when I sang the whoo oh part they started clapping and yelling and I was like but I am not done! I also had time to warn them about my really bad rapping! In all honesty I really wasn't that nervous I think it is because I fell more comfortable with 14-16 years olds then adults my age! So as we are walking to our TA so that we can give them regesration information one of the special ed students comes up to me and said "Ms. Wilding were you in choir?" and I was thinkg as nice he thinks my voice is good enough for choir but when I told him no he said " Oh cause your timing was off in that song!" Oh the joys of Teaching! I should say that there were other students that said that they liked my song and they didn't know that I could sing!
