Pretty but Not a Slut

My cohort student started today.  When she came in I was meeting with a small reading group.  They saw her and JB says,

"She's really pretty."

Me: "She is very pretty."

"She looks a lot like my cousin except without all the piercings...and she's (pointing to the cohort) not a slut like my cousin."

Me: "Oh.  Let's not use that word in school."

"Really though.  My cousin's a slut!  She's only 16 and she has a baby!"

Oh the joys of 6th graders with no filters.

I'm a Professional, Right?

I'm getting my very first cohort (aka month-long student teacher) tomorrow.  I'm a bit nervous about this.  I--the 2nd year teacher, the teacher who often acts like she's also a 6th grader, the teacher who sometimes forgets how to convert kilograms to grams when trying to teach it to 12-year-olds, the teacher who tells students to put their butts in chairs right now--am supposed to teach an up and coming teacher how to do things.  How to be a teacher.

Ugh. The pressure. 

I've spent the evening preparing, quite possibly over preparing, for tomorrow while Husband has been out with his friends.  I just don't want to mess up this lovely girl's education or have her go back to school and complain about the imbecile the school placed her with.

I just want to be the perfect teacher and mentor for the next month...is that too much to ask?
