Why are you cool?

[Sundae]

Like Dana, I am cool because kids think I am cool.

When I eat in the canteen I create a rush of children at my table. They should seat 8 children, but obviously I take up two spaces as a larger adult (compared to two six year olds).
It turns out we can get ten (inc me) if we really try.
I do remonstrate with them, but as long as there is space on the table, they don't mind if half their arses are hanging off the end of the benches.

I am able to negotiate with Tiger by promising to sing to him.
"If we read to page 6 then I'll sing you the woah-oh-woah-woah song."
Which is What's New Pussycat, from my singing cat puppet.
Or A Mouse Lived in a Windmill which I used when we were stuck on Where and There on his wordwall.

How cool is that?
Bribing a child with singing?
I must have such a wonderful voice!
Well. At least it works with him.

My other child is fixated on Angry Birds, to the extent I've started playing it online in an attempt to see how I can use it in lessons.
