These are the jokes, peopleI'm depressed that the last two entries I did -- about various aspects of my
teaching philosophy and practice -- have garnered exactly zero comments. By the
standards of this blog, those are the substantive, content-rich, serious
entries. Do you want to encourage me to write more entries like those? Or
would you rather have something like this:
Below I have reproduced an actual note
that was sent home from school with Archer today. All punctuation and spelling
(or lack thereof) is exactly as found in the original. (The note was
word-processed on a plain sheet of copier paper with no date, heading, or other
niceties -- just a one-inch margin at the top, a two-inch margin on the left, a
half-inch margin on the right, and at least nine inches of white space at the
bottom.)
Dear, Parents It is 10 days til school is out your child will not be aloud to charge. And if our child has charges please pay them by the last day of school. Thank you, [name of school employee] Time to vote with your comment-clicking finger, people. What'll it be? Posted: Mon - May 21, 2007 at 08:26 PM | |
