OH M YGOD I FRIENDED MY HISTORY TEACHER ON FACEBOOK AND THIS IS HIS PROFILE PICTURE

I DONT KNOW WHETHER TO LAUGH OR CR y

So I was in a class last semester called "Fundamentals of Teaching Practice"

And one of the guys suggested that all young male teachers should wear wedding rings. I mean if they aren’t already married to get fake ones. This would be to deter our students crushing on us.

I think it’s an interesting, if not egotistical thought.

What do you guys think?

History Teacher: Feminism is another vocab word on your list
Kid in Class: pfft crazy feminism
History Teacher: Actually feminism today is viewed as a negative thing like you hear someone mention a feminist and people automatically think of a crazy woman when in actuality it's women just wanting to be equal. I've tried joining a couple clubs but they haven't returned my phone call.
my teacher is male

Things I love to hear

Student 1 (as we are starting to learn about Stalin): Ms. S, why if Stalin killed more people than Hitler have we never heard of him but we know about Hitler?

This led to a very interesting class discussion about how history is told/taught.

flash forward to a couple days ago

Student 2: Ms. S, now that we know about Stalin I’ve been seeing references to him everywhere!

I have done my job. :D
