Word – Crazy Things People Say to Teachers

We Are Teachers has a bitter sweet post up about the funny things people say to teachers – with appropriate responses.

Here is a sample:

The comment: “Johnny NEVER misbehaves/has trouble paying attention/hits other kids/acts out at home. I wonder what you’re doing in the classroom to make that happen.”
The comeback: “That is strange that Johnny has such different behavior in the classroom. Let’s figure out a way to get to the bottom of this. You’re welcome to observe my teaching any time you want. When can I come to your house?”

It is worth 5 minutes of your morning to get a refresher on why teachers deserve more respect than they are getting.
