I was at a classroom for a week or so and gave out tickets for great behaviors etc. At the end of the week they could use the tickets to buy cookies..which I made...or mechanical pencils..which are the bomb...or a lunch with the teacher pass.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835645686378402784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-5274703027731424492012-05-03T06:35:20.803-04:002012-05-03T06:35:20.803-04:00Chuck, you've had to see just about everything...Chuck, you've had to see just about everything come through. <br /><br />Chris, Hi, I remember you! Thanks for the tips. I try everything and this sounds like fun. I am able to wiggle my ears (hands free of course) quack like a duck, assortment of cartoon voices and other silly human tricks they seem fascinated by :) the only problem with a little fun is that they don't have an off switch and Mr. Late For Dinner has to turn off the lights, clap 3 times and use his angry voice :(DaBladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16160781062081889980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-46495846115727647452012-05-02T21:15:42.203-04:002012-05-02T21:15:42.203-04:00Hey Jerry!

I happened to stumble accross your interesting story and wanted to lend a few subbing tips, as until last month I had been earning my keep by challenging young minds. One sure way for a sub to get the attention of his or her group is to begin to talk with any accent! I was once with a group of chattering 4th graders and I just broke out in a heavy southern accent and told then," O' my...I do declare...you are hurting my pretty little ear drums with the amount of noise ya'll are projecting." Silence hit the room and I was asked to keep talking. So I did a complete Scinece lesson with my new southern accent.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835645686378402784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-8256656577454679532012-05-02T18:13:27.964-04:002012-05-02T18:13:27.964-04:00I treat kids in the ER and they are often easier a...I treat kids in the ER and they are often easier and more fun to deal with than their parents.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02467510776931664234noreply@blogger.com
