This Week at Work

Highlights:

Old Fart, during a team meeting, about a particular student: “He has the memory bank of a dead toad.”

A colleague leading a meeting about grading: “If a student can’t pass the mustard on the test…” and, “It’s not that we have a huge road to hoe against us…”

A student’s innocent persuasive essay advocating for sex education: “Let students teach students with fun, hands-on learning.”

And finally, the five-ounce can of Coca-Cola pictured here was given to me by a student whose dad is in the military in Iraq. I am grateful for the student’s sharing with me, but unsure about the moral complications resulting from having such a possession. I certainly don’t want to drink it.
