    I remember when I first started teaching middle school and was up late one night while finishing my master’s degree, walking into my algebra class the morning . I turned to write on the SmartBoard and heard a bunch of whispers from my class of 37 and kids saying, should we tell her? Two of my girls raised their hands and said Mrs. D, um you missed a spot while flat ironing your hair. Emma has a flat iron in her locker and you know we can fix that before your next block. I froze. 😂 Gotta love 8th graders.

    It's either she loves us because she got the quietest students and we all don't talk and do our homework in time and we're all really smart and honest
    Or we're just wholesome because every day of the week we bring in a bunch of flowers so now the counter is full of flower vases. We love school to be honest!

    Wow. We never were asked such fun stuff in 3rd grade! Oh, my gosh! My teachers were so strict and serious! We had our reading groups, different levels, and we had to learn math (all 3rd grade stuff). We had to go up to the old chalk board, each one of us, to do problems. Nothing like being humiliated in front of your peers if you got it wrong! Yikes! Ok, where were u when I was a 3rd grader? ❤👏😘
    I do remember my 6th grade teacher, fabulous lady! She gave me my nickname. She would read to us after lunch from a book, like Judy Blume ("Tales from a 5th grade Nothing" or "Fudge, "etc.or "A Wrinkle in Time" I recall.

    Teaching about presidents is always cool. I had a student in an 8-1-1 who asked what happens when a president dies before his term is up. They were learning about Lincoln in February. The adults were happy to see him ask a critical thinking question and saw he was absorbing and learning.

    I don’t have to flat iron or talk about my teacher’s fashion sense because he wears the same style every day and he’s bald

    HI, that reminds me when I was teaching in Amazon forest, I used to be Portuguese composition teacher, 6th grade. Long hair. Once I was with this 30 teens, checking on an exercise at the teachers table; class was quiet writing a composition. Suddenly I heard the quietness, that was the sign for when they had done something wrong. I stood up and my hair got straignt from holding by a japonese stick . I held it and class laugh out loud. Teacher, one said, it is the second time he did it and you haven´t noticed." I stared at this 13 y.o. boy and shot him with my furious eyes. He replied. YOu´ve been changing your way to use your hair. I can´t get concentration this way. YOu have to keep same look everyday or I will not write a good story... and that was just the beggining...

    Once I subbed HS band/orch. Needless to say kids all doing their own - loud- renditions of "practice/warmup" I asked what the lesson was....Stars & Stripes Forever. I said I wassnt given the score for that. Class said, "That's ok, we know it!". So...they played and I bluffed thru conducting, nice and loud. Were 't too purty, but we had fun!!
