"All right guys, tomorrow you will receive your grade slip for my classes. You will know what your parents will see in the report card that goes home!" I tell my classes today. Later on, a student comes to my desk and asks "Ms. Torres, could I have my grades today during homeroom?" "You will receive them tomorrow sweetie! Is there a reason why you can't wait until tomorrow?" I ask. "Well, I need a warning about the warning grades my parents will receive as a warning of my report card!" he responds. I just started laughing. YOu should have seen his face trying to make sense of his statement. He just burst out laughing. ______________________________________________________________ Science class today: "Rivers have several stages. Youthful, Mature, Old and Rejuvenated" I tell the class. "So youthful rivers are like us, pre teens and teenagers and Old rivers are like you, right?" a student comments. "Ooooh", the class responds waiting to see my response. "It is a good thing this old teacher is working on grades right now!" I reply. "Oh! can I get extra points for having a sense of humor?" she replies. "Get it Ms. Torres, sense of humor? Ha, ha!!!" When will they learn!!!
