where are all the children?

Yup, you guessed it.  It rained today.

In my first class of the day, 5th graders, fourteen of thirty-seven showed up.  My co-teacher was running an hour late so I just took all fourteen and taught them like a normal lesson.

In my next two classes of first graders and then second graders...

ONE student out of about thirty in each class showed up (the other people in the pictures are all teachers).  I doubt there is any kind of attendance penalty at my school.

So instead of teaching for these two classes, I got to watch the USA vs. Slovenia soccer game.  We should have won 3-2 but instead, just tied 2-2 because of a disallowed goal I'm still confused about.
