Beneath Still Waters

I am immensely frustrated today with the level of my students work. They clearly didn't study for their vocabulary & spelling quiz, nor for their word of the day quiz (6 words, mind you) and some of them didn't study for their scripture test. Then, they have either an essay or an ABC book due and all I get are excuses... they had more than 3 weeks notice...

I guess it's just been one of those weeks. Sometimes I feel like I am beating my head against the wall over and over again.
