friend of mine just shared this on facebook

high school english teacher in vancouver runs a blog on tumblr called "you suck sir" ... short posts about exchanges he has with students during the day

entertaining/poignant/sad/funny stuff

Aging
Grade 11 Student: “Sir, how old are you?”

Me: “Early forties.”

Him: “Wow. You’re older than my dad.”

Me: “Yup.”

Him: “But you don’t seem that old.”

Me: “Thanks, I guess.”

Him: “Do you think about death a lot?”

Me: “I’m thinking about it right now.”

Him: ”Why’re you thinking about your death now?”

Me: ”I didn’t say my death.”

Him: “Oh.”



It’s All About The…

Me: “What are your plans for the summer?”

Grade 10 Student: “I don’t know, Sir. Chill with my boys. Play video games.”

Me: “You know when Benjamin Franklin was your age, he founded one of America’s first independent newspapers?”

Him: “Who’s that?”

Me: “Benjamin Franklin? He was one of America’s Founding Fathers.”

He stares at me blankly.

Me: “You ever see an American hundred dollar bill?”

Him: “Is that why they call them Benjamins?”

Me: “Enjoy your summer.”




Divorce

One of my grade 9 students has been out of sorts due to his parents’ impending divorce. He’s decided to stay in the classroom with me during lunch.

Me: “You know I got divorced, too?”

Him: “Really? You?”

Me: “Yeah. A long time ago. Man, it hurt.”

Him: “So, you have kids?”

Me: “No. But I’ll tell you this: if my wife and I had a kid like you, we would have prolonged our marriage for as long as we could, just like your parents did the past few years. I bet they only stayed together this long just because of how much they love you.”

Him: “They keep saying stuff like that.”

Me: “Because it’s probably the truth.”

Him: “It doesn’t make me feel any better.”

Me: “No. It won’t. But one day, it will.”
