Yeah, some of it is that particular year group (which contains some really difficult boys) but some of it is hormones and there ain't nowt you can do about that.
I've been wondering if giving Y1 children the opportunity to work on the floor (with a clipboard if writing) would go a long way to alleviating the squirminess that seems to happen when they sit at desks.
Ooh, interesting! That's actually not half a bad idea. There wouldn't really be space for all ours to do it at once in our room, but some of them prefer the desk anyway so it might work really well. Must try it next term.
