Wacky Teaching Stories
#1 We got a new pet hamster yesterday. A cute, baby, fuzzy hamster. I always let the kids vote on names for the pets. The run-off vote came down to either Truffles or...Medea. Let's just hope the little bugger never gets a chance to reproduce.
#2 One of my students wasw very loudly singing the "bow-chika-bow-wow" song in class. I was concerned, to say the least about what he had been watching. I kept him back from art and we had the following conversation.
Me: So, where did you hear that song?
Him: Well, there's this video I found on the internet...
Me: (in my head) OMG! He's been watching the pr0n on teh internets. I'm going to have to tell his father!
Him: Made by the people who did Halo.
Me: Red vs. Blue!?!? Oh, thank god!
Turns out he's an even bigger fan of the series then I am. I walked him to art and we had one of the best student/teacher bonding moments evar!
