I told Gail (also the same girl who mixed up whore's and horse) that she was in charge of the classroom today.
"I'm not feeling well, and school's almost out, so from here on out Gail is running the joint!"
(Don't be alarmed- all part of a kick butt introduction to Animal Farm. An experiment in what happens when someone gets too much power, you know how it goes.)
"Really?" Gail's big eyes lit up with delight. "I'm in charge?!?!'
"You better believe it. Get up there, Gail, you're the teacher."
Gail took her rightful place at the head of the classroom, still somewhat unsure. "So I'm supposed to act like you?"
"Yep."
Gail paused for a moment, apparently still unsure what to do. Then, an idea seemed to dawn on her. The sixteen year old placed her hands on her hips, gave her hair a sassy little flip and said in a falsetto voice, "If you guys do not all shut up right now, I swear I am going to strangle every one of you!"
The class roared with laughter. Absolutely ROARED. I have NEVER seen teenagers like this. Every single person in the classroom was laughing. Except me.
Good to know the impression that I make on my students.
And just for the record...
I would never really strangle them.
You believe me, don't you?
