Being homeschooled is very nice... :P
Really, though, that sucks. But hey, you're almost through one semester, can you not make it through another?
Was (and still partly am) homeschool most of my life. All except kindergarten, 2nd grade, part-time high school this year, and may go to full time high school for senior year.
Anyways, in my wood shop, kids are always loud. Just the other day, we didn't have a project so my teacher made us all clean the room (so delightful). He put the two kids named Paul to scooping sawdust out of the vents outside. A girl who sits at my table was bored and asked the teacher what she could do.
"Well you can go help them out there."
Girl: "Ok"
She went out the back doors and I heard some noise and chittering around the corner. Noises got louder I saw a huge poof of sawdust fly around the corner. The girl came back in covered from her hair to her shoes in sawdust. She was mad too.
I have 7.
Short periods are great.
I have seven, each one is less than an hour except 5th hour, which is 90 minutes due to lunch.
