I approached a student who was “off task” during a lesson and said, “You should do that on your break.” She screamed out, “YOU NEVER GIVE ME A BREAK!”
As I was teaching a lesson on quotation usage, I asked the students, “Remember when I read Charlotte’s Web and I changed my voice depending on which character was quoted?” One of my DIVINE students blurts out, “Yeah and you messed up a few times too!” In my calmest teacher voice I responded saying, “Yes I did make mistakes. I am human and I have never claimed to be Jesus and never will!”
Johnny yelled out, “Mrs. So-and-So, Ricky has a weapon in his backpack!” Ricky screamed back, “No I don’t, it’s a LIGHTSABER!”
Love this Dallas Clayton guy…his kids books are great!
Yesterday I found a note between two students… Boy A: “Are you still my friend?” Boy B: “Maby!!?! I[‘m] thinking.”
