Overheard in Room 4

small group of students writing in their journals with teacher.

Student 1: sighs I am bored of this writing.

Teacher: Ok, well I guess that means I will have to make you do more.

Student 1: in disbelief No, you can't make me do anything.

Teacher: Oh yes, I can.

Student 1: How?

Teacher: I will make you stay in from recess tomorrow and write the whole time.

Student 1: But what if you forget?

Student 2: Teachers never forget.

Teacher: Oh, don't worry, I won't forget. Do you still want to say you are bored?

Student 1: I have 2 words for you.

pause

I can't wait for summer vacation, and I guess I will not be bored of writing.

I guess this post came across a little harsher than it happened. The kid I was talking about is kind of goofy and we we're both smiling the whole time...
