Can I say that I am embarrassed to admit I am a teacher on so many occasions these days! What possible purpose could there have been in terrifying students? We teach for positive outcomes. What happened to All I Really Need to know I Learned in Kindergarten?
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life -l earn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world, watch our for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.
(Robert Fulghum)
I know it's idealistic, but could they have planned a field trip that included sticking together and being aware of wonder? I cringe at calling these "teachers" peers.
Stupid is the only word that fits.
