Teaching Excellence

It's really hard to concentrate on school when you've got this going on outside:


But who can blame the kids when the teacher is distracted as well.

One of my young college friends on Facebook became a fan of the following:
"Getting your teacher to go off topic for the whole class period."
The thing is I remember that sort of "victory" from my days in school. Now I'm seeing that my kids are mastering this art.

Since we weren't accomplishing much anyway, and Tuesdays are the day we normally go to the park, I cancelled class and we headed out for lunch at Chick-Fil-A with friends. We stayed so the moms could talk, the little kids could play on the playground, and the older kids could play cards and color.


You might have had a teacher who got off subject, but did you ever have one that cancelled class and took you to lunch? That's what I thought.
