A crate would probably be a good idea but we don't have one yet. We have him on a leash and he's laying by our feet. Now it's going well but this morning was tough because the boys kept messing with him (he's really playful) and all the focus was on the dog instead of the lesson.

I think I just had an epiphany. I'm going to start with math since they work independently. That way it will give the dog time to settle down and if it takes them a long time to do their work, that's on them. Then when I'm presenting a lesson on the whiteboard later, I'm not fighting for their attention as much.

I suggest taking the week off! ;D
