The Treasure Chest Post

So. I had a bad teacher moment this morning when I realized that I forgot to get the candy I promised the kids as a reward if they got all their homework problems right.  Oops.

My solution.  I found my school pictures from last year sitting in my desk drawer.  I whipped out a sharpie and signed them like the rock star that I am.

That's right.  I gave my students autographed pictures of myself as a reward.

I consider it one of my finer moments as a teacher.

I am starting a treasure chest with more useful items in it, such as band aids, nickels, dead batteries and paper clips.

I think the kids liked it more than candy.

Probably not.

Oh well. They're stuck with me whether they like my antics or not.

At least I think I'm funny.
