If you were a substitute teacher of high school
seniors for a day, what one sentence would you first say to the class?
Ron Owen Class dismissed.
John Roach
I know where you'd go, Ron--to the beach!
Gregory Welsh
Bueller, Bueller.... Anyone
anyone anyone?????
Doug Basile
Shut Up! Sit Down!
John Roach
Doug: That tempts me to
make my opening sentence be: "You guys are lucky you didn't get Mr.
Basile."
Gray Stikeleather
Handwerk Listen,
I don't want to be here anymore than you do, but we have to, so let's just
agree to get through this as painlessly as possible. It's like Homer Simpson
once said, "Okay, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me. But let's
work together this one time and then I'll go back to slowly killing you with
beer."
John Roach
I'd want to see how
well the cell-happy kids actually know each other. I'd go with: "We'll start
with a quiz: Write down the first and last name of every person in this
class--whoever has all the right names, can leave and enjoy a free period.
Chris Colter
We're having class outside
today on the beach.
John Roach
Best. Teacher. Ever, Chris
Colter
Christine
Laudeman Soloway It
only gets worse from here!
John Roach: re
Christine
Laudeman Soloway: Initially, my thought about subbing for seniors was
that it would only get worse from here FOR ME. My first sentence might have
been: "Here's my emergency contact information just in case something
happens today."
Mike Campellone
"My defense attorney
thought this teaching thing would be good for my anger issues."
Tom McNamara
<knocks over desk> “Are
we going to have any problems?”
John Roach
Ahhh, now the people who
deal with students are chiming in. Things just got real!
Bridget Ann White
I am happy to be here; don't try to change my mind.
