Ok so I have been with students for the last couple days and all is going well. Here are a couple of the funny things that have happened or that I learned...
I saw a shirt that said spooning leads to forking...so I tried to think of every dirty thing that I could to figure out what forking was...much to my dismay forking is just f*cking ahhh..I get it, but it's really not cool. If there is more to this story someone let me know because I like to have the inside scoop on the chillen. I think it would be fun to wear one of these shirts on casual Friday, just to see the kids expressions because they know it's wrong and it would be fun. There are various tshirts of similar nature floating around the school, just bad enough to be annoying, but not bad enough to make them go to the office. I have also noticed an influx of Pink Floyd tshirts...hmmm the question is do they know anything about Pink Floyd other than it seems to be the kind of music that people get high to...at least that is what I heard...again I am not impressed this does not make them cool?
Being the short person in the hall it is easy to catch students doing stupid crap and saying bad things. For example one of my students was behind me today and he was throwing out all kinds of bombs, so I stopped and asked he to repeat what he said, he was about 6'2" and was speechless. It was fun.My one class that I have alone was good my kids are really paying attention and I think we are going to read The Hobbit if I can get my hands on some books.
I still do not have a computer or access to all the programs, but hey maybe someday. One of my co-teachers is good to work with and I haven't really figured out the other one, but the vibe is not exactly positive. Oh well you win some you lose some.
