Student to friend: Holy crap! Passover just saved my ass!
Hee! Reminds me of my 8th grade biology final, which I totally forgot to study for and would have failed big time if it wasn't for the fact that, before class started, about 1/4 of the class went up to the teacher and told him that, as members of the chorus, they were all going to have to leave 20 minutes later to go to a performance. He got so pissed that he completely canceled the final (foetal pig all cut open wide, and we were going to have to identify all the organs) and based our grade on our score up to that point. Yay for an undeserved A!
Has anyone here used ComicLife? I'm thinking of using it for a class. It's kinda cool... but.... hmm.....
Also fun, Comic Creator. Not as fun as the one we were all using (which one was that?) a bit back, but more friendly to kids stuff.
Love me some ComicLife. The kids I had in class last year seemed to do alright with it, and we're talking 5th graders (the ones who used it a lot were, anyway)
My Joss is a Bengal, I think. With overly-healthy teeth and claws.
I really desperately want a new book. What teacher wants to buy me a discounted romance novel? Tell the cashier that it's for the children. I am quite capable of looking 14 if that's necessary.
Alibelle, I will bring in some of the books we are getting rid of on Monday. Don't think there are any romance novels, but maybe youi'll find sometthing to interest you. And you can't beat the price!
Fun! A reason to look forward to Monday.
I wish I counted as a teacher. I mean, the people I teach formally are just one year out of high school, and I seem to be one of the only people in the math department who actually likes working with younger kids, so I'm tutoring a few middle-schoolers. And I know I get paid significantly less than most teachers. But no discount for me.
Aw, I'm sorry Hil.
I have no idea why people who teach at universities don't count as teachers. That makes no sense to me.
Dude, if I'm a teacher, you guys are getting shafted. My sister (university lecturer too) got her discount with two different cashiers, as did I.
Don't know when i get sprung. Maybe tomorrow afternoon. That'll give me two more doses.
Man I've been in three different bookstores with two different teachers who forgot their IDs and none of those clerks would give them discounts.
