Best Student Story Ever

[JenniferL]

Today, at Community Circle, we had a special announcement. Our school won a competition to collect the most soda cans for recycling. The prize is a visit from Sea World. The teacher in charge of the project told us today that they'd come next week and one of the animals they would show is an American alligator.

 

One of my boys, the extreme duuuude, who walks around muttering, "I like swords.", turned to me and said "Mrs. Liang, I have a question."

 

I looked at him and said, "No, you may not wrestle the alligator."

 

"Oh maaaaaan!"

 

I love my students.

:lol:

We students give teachers such fun times ;)

[JenniferL]

I'm teaching them to make chainmail next week. This self same kid is INSISTING that we make combat ready mail, so that when he sword fights he won't get stabbed. He also made a habit of writing his homework entirely in the Greek alphabet. Not IN Greek, mind you. Just using that alphabet. I would have complained, but that was the most work I'd seen from him all semester.

:lol:

You truly have a unique kid there Mother

[Charis alAslan]

lol!!! :lol:

Kids are awesome! I miss teaching my kid students in Japan... ^_^ Still sounds like you have a handful. Watch that one and pass him a WoT book when he's eating lunch. :P

[JenniferL]

I've tried. He won't sit still long enough to read. However, when they take the CRCT next week, I plan on making my sample copies of TEOTW the only reading material they are allowed.

[Guest Far Dareis Mai]

That's great! And then you will have soon amassed an army of RJ fans!

[JenniferL]

Sword Guy will NOT shut up about the alligator. This morning he came in and asked me if he could feed his best friend to it.

lol

[Corki]

Now, as a Classicist, who studies Greek, does he use the right length for the E's and O's??

[Helike]

lol! :lol:

[Zachary]

My thoughts exactly, Corkicus.

[Twitchy]

O_o...........That kid sounds weirder then me!

My teachers hate me most of the time....and then laugh at me the other part of the time....

<.<

>.>

I guess im partly to blame but meh, whatever.

[Hammar Gaidin]

hahaha that kid is awsome...maybe a little annoying at times, but deffinitely fun to hear about...I wish I was that creative...I was just annoying...

[Kepen heal]

I am still a kid and its fun to annoy teachers. Sorry mother but it is to fun.

[JenniferL]

Its alright. I used to annoy my teachers too. I'm pretty sure this is karma. =)

[Guest Majsju]

If there's any such thing as karma, I'm pretty darn happy I changed my mind about going into teaching...

[Niamh Sedai]

My teachers love me...

 

Oh except my French Teacher... *mutters*

[JenniferL]

My karma indicates that I should never have children. They will only cause me sorrow. And strained muscles from all the beatings.

[Zachary]

Just make Seg beat them. Then you won't hurt yourself. And you can claim complete innocence when the cops come.

[JenniferL]

He wears out faster than I do. No, most of the beatings will have to be administered by me.

[Guest Majsju]

Well, always remember to mix the beating with the random swift kick in the rear, that saves the arms a bit. :D

[Zachary]

And use a ruler. That way you can use your wrist and not wear down your shoulder.

[Helike]

*holds up her hand*

 

Ummm... actually I have discovered that children hate phys ed more than anything else. Push ups, sit ups, crunches, wall squats, heck, just make 'em hold a book straight out for a couple a minutes and watch 'em turn to jelly!!! :twisted: And that way you don't get tired or strain any muscles, they do.
