A small clown sits at the back of a class room - 'Mr Jenkins, do you always have to be the class clown?!'

"There's something weird about Emily. She actually likes school!"

'Good girl, Carol - now hands up all those who have lost their pens.'

'I started out as a teacher's pet, and then it kind of snowballed.'

'Thank you for the apple Conrad. But in answer to your question, no, you may not address me as 'Boopsie'.'

"Today in class we're going to create a physics teacher."

Global Education

"How was first grade? I don't know yet. I spent all day in the Principal's office."

"You're actually passing notes in class? That is so retro!"

It could be worse -- there could be 35 teachers for every student

Beginning of the school year

"I give all new teachers the same advice. First you have to get the attention of the class. Can you quack like a duck or juggle two books in the air?"

'Did I throw which spitball?'

'You always go that extra mile, don't you Molly.'

Math Class. Rm 217. I don't know how many time I've failed a math test.

School boy

"Can't hear it at all, miss."

"People...do you FINALLY understand the concept of 'Visual Narrative?'"

WELCOME TO KINDERGARTEN!, 'It was neat! - they have flat-screen blackboards!'

'A sinkhole ate my homework...?'

"Thanks for substituting. I left you some private notes in cursive."

'I look forward to my first year as a teacher. I wrote lesson plans, attended in-service workshops, and decorated my classroom. Preparation is half the victory. It's the other half that scares me.'

'Can I have a few minutes to defrag before I take the test?'

"On the plus side, he's a disruptor."

'Ok, who threw that?'

There's always one.

"I didn't bring an apple, so how about a fruit roll up?"

"Today we're going to learn to deal with rejection."

'...And that should cover all my rules for the class.'

"I only talk down to your child because he's shorter than me."

"Miss Perkins, I need more lumbar support."

Paul Revere circa 3rd grade.

Many of you were confused about the "Randy's How to be an Alpha" lesson from yesterday: "Live like you've got nothing to lose." You know what? I don't care. If you don't get it, that's on you. If you want to hang out with the big dog, either keep up or get left behind. I hope that demonstration clears up the confusion. If not, I couldn't care less.
