Cold feet!

12 yo wouldn't pack her school bag on Sunday night and she was still day dreaming in the morning so we were in a rush to make it to school in time. Sat down to my desk at 9.30am and got a call almost immediately:

M: I can't find my PE shoes.
E: Where did you leave them?
M: Dunno, your house or mine. Can you get them for me?
E: Not now, I need to prepare for a meeting. What are you doing in PE?
M: Badminton.
E: Well you should be alright in bare feet.
M: But I'll get cold. 🙄
E: Not if you run around enough. 😁
M: *realises call is going nowhere* . . FINE! . . *ends call abruptly*

I phoned her at lunch to catch up.

M: Miss G told me off for being disorganised and forgetting stuff and I had VERY COLD FEET, but NOBODY CARES about my feelings 🤣🤣🤣

the students at the school i teach at leave their recess/gym shoes in their lockers or cubbies depending on their age and if you came that unprepared at that age to school u wouldnt forget that lesson quickly

@Mountainlady16 Lockers are a good idea.

@SunshineGirl I'm gratefuly students don't have to worry about that we take our students shoes off when they get there and put them back on at outside time and than whoever picks up the kid puts them on before they go home. Our classroom is mostly climbing toys and soft play areas except for our table area so there's really no need for them to wear shoes in the classroom

@Mountainlady16 That's really nice for the younger children 🙂
