GLUE BOY AND THE NUTTER WHO COULD BE KING

Curious behaviour #1. The boy was sat in the corner, away from the rest of the class. I asked him to write down a few defintions, but this was quite a challenge it seemed. I decided to help him out and asked him to stick in the work into his book. Shouldn't be a problem I thought. He ate the glue.

Curious behaviour #2. He doesn't walk into the classroom, he barges through everyone, knocking boys sideways. He won't sit down until he has kicked the chair over at least twice. He won't get his books out until he has kicked his bag upto the ceiling. He walks out of the room when he wants to and comes back when he feels like it. When he wants my attention he grabs hold of my arm and squeezes. Or he punches me. I think he likes me. He is really bright. He described the blinds in the classroom as "medieval". He was right. I wanted him to be King Harold Godwinson. He was away.
