IB therefore...

I need a good workout to destress today, but first:

One of my students didn't show up for the IB exam today. I saw him walking down the hall with this sheepish smile, laughing to himself.

Me: "J, why aren't you in the exam?!"
J: "Haha, I'm late."
Me: (Dumbfounded, mouth agape, trying to keep my cool....)
J: "I can make it up tomorrow, right?"
Me: "No. There's no make up exam, J."
J: (Face falling)Oh.

Oh, I was LIVID.

You do all you can, and this is how it goes down.

And my favorite part: When his classmates returned and I broke out the cookies and candy (a reward for a long day), he was one of the first to help himself.

Figures....

¿Qué se puede hacer...?
