Life has definitely been crazy since I stepped into the classroom in August. I always knew teachers had a hard job, but I have a whole new respect for what Kevin has been doing the past 4 years.
There is never a dull moment at a middle school... NEVER. Here are some shareable moments you may enjoy.
- My students are obsessed with my age. I have been estimated as young as 22 and as old as 35. There is rarely a day that goes by that at least one student does not try to get an answer out of me. It is not so much that I care if they know how old I am, I just enjoy driving them crazy by not confirming my age.
- A girl that I don't even teach says hello to me in the hall in the mornings. One morning she told me I was the most beautiful teacher in the whole school... made my day!
- Me: Where are you going? I didn't call lockers yet...
Several Students: Umm, yeah you did Mrs. Coy...
Me: Really? Hmm, ok then, is it Friday yet? - I will often play music from my iTunes while students are doing work... "Mrs. Coy, do you have any like, good music, on there?"
- A student asked if he could change seats so he could sit in the back of the class. When I asked why, his answer was "I can't see sitting in the front..."
