Years from now, my students may not remember much of what they learned in class (or, maybe they will - I can only hope), but, if they think of me at all, they'll probably remember these oft repeated phrases that have become staples in our classroom:
Unless you're about to throw up, bleeding, or on fire, you may not come speak with me when I'm with a reading group.
The only thing you need to bring to the carpet is your lovely self.
That book is my favorite. Well, that one is too...
Mints are good brain food (for tests).
(while praying Stations of the Cross) Jesus suffered on the cross for three hours; you can stand for 20 minutes.
Doing nothing is not an option.
Nowhere on the board does it say talk to your neighbor.
Anyways, you get the idea. What you say says a lot about you, doesn't it?
lovely to see we see these comments in second grade too... guess some things never change ;)
