Before I even met my 5th graders I heard about Onintza. She's a star.Oni doesn't have to study very much at all, and she gets perfect scores. She's not the over-acheiver type like Sally--she just knows she's the best.
This girl loves to tease.
One day I'd given the class their assignment and they started busily scratching in their Science notebooks. I was trying to decide if I had enough time in class to do my second activity and ended up zoning into oblivion. (oops.)
Suddenly a movement caught my eye and I re-focused to see Oni's little impish grin. She waved her tiny hand, raised her eyebrows and asked, 'Miss, what are you looking at?'
Eduardo and Cristian have taken to pestering her. Cristian leaned back in his chair, teasing her for every word she said, and Eduardo (completely turned around in his desk which sits in first row) egged Cristian on. Finally, Oni cried, 'Miss! Tell them to stop!' (as she attempted to hide a smile.)
Poor Oni. They all love her.
