Having to decide between lesson planning and bed time because you've procrastinated all weekend.
My response any time we have to stay after school.
When kids tell you they have been hearing one of our concert songs on the radio and they sing along, when they previously didn't believe me it was a popular holiday song.
Those kids you have to give a question limit to, otherwise I'd say this.
The face I make when I see a child holding a ukulele with one hand above their head.
What I like to imagine honor choir being like.
When students try to talk to me interrupting our lesson by not raising their hand.
After you overhear the principal saying strep throat and a stomach virus are going around 3rd grade.
"Can you help us with our Black History program?" A week before the performance date.
When students try to tattle on each other, or "ooh" when they think someone is getting in trouble.
When a child bypasses their bathroom opportunity and then mid class needs to go.
"Mr. Learn, Mrs. Learn, Mrs. Ummm, Mrs. Teacher, Mrs. (whatever the child's homeroom teacher's name is)"
When a child loses instrument privileges and doesn't want to cough it over.
What I wanted to say to the audience before our winter performances.
When the same child tells me he hates my class every day, but doesn't realize he is stuck with me for possibly the next 5 years.
When I hear students talk back to another teacher.
Why I'm not the best with little kids.
When the bad kids say "Ms. Spitzer can I stay with you the rest of the day?"
