Teacher's P.O.V

Teacher's P.O.V
I was talking to the class about creative writing but wishing that the bell would go as i was feeling so damn ill. The majority of them were listening which is the best i can hope for with this set but, i wish so much that i had all of the children's attention as it would make mine, and the numerous TA's jobs a lot easier.

It's always the same few. The girl who sits at the back, Quin by the name, in her own trail of thought and her mouth moving constantly when she is talking to no one and, the boy called Dill at the back with the buzzcut who is making paper airplanes right this minute, the sweet but very needy severly autistic child called Kennedy which reminds me that i think, i should enquire about a helper for her. The twins Tilly and Sam who claim they are telepathic and sometimes, i half believe them and finally Syd, who is making piercing whistling noises right this second.

I was nearly able to let them do a sheet i had printed out earlier which means independent work resulting in me being able to retreat back to my own desk and relax for a bit but suddenly, Quin started screaming and swearing about something which was cleary making her very agitated.

I immidiatley marched straight past numerous tables and chairs, most of which were balancing on two legs with the child who occupied it sneaking in a good chat with their neighbour. "Quin what an earth is the matter." I spoke loudly over her screaming, she must of not heard me.  Slightly loosing my patience i spoke a bit louder with firmness in my voice. She must have been ignoring me and with one last attempt with little patience left i yelled "QUIN SHUT UP AND TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU." That hushed the whole class. Maybe they now know that i can loose my temper and i am not 'easy'.

I strode straight back down the rows of desks, which now had chairs with four legs on the ground and everyone's full attention apart from Quin's. I got to the front of the shabby classroom and just stood there. I looked as no one dared move, not even a snide remark passed anyone's lips.

Eventually a girl named Tia plucked up the courage to grab a pencil and poke Quin rather hard in the side. I saw the whole thing. Quin swivelled round and glared at Tia with a venomous glare in her eyes and was just raising her fist ready to punch her when Tia's eyes signaled for Quin to look at me. I saw Quin mutter for a while until i was finally gifted with her full attention.
I finally had the whole classes FULL ATTENTION.
