LOOKS CAN BE DECEIVING

By: Jamie Goldberg

Oh my goodness, how annoying was

science today?

I don’t even know why we bother with that class…

we learn NOTHING!!!Oh I know…

worst teacher

ever… don’t you agree

Jen?

Well, I mean, I just feel like I’m not learning anything. Science is

hard and who understands chemistry? She doesn’t know how to explain ANYTHING!!! How am I supposed to know what happens when you mix copper and zinc? I am NOT a

chemist

I know what you mean Jen! You

guys know JustinGlass?

He will sometimes walk around behind Mrs. Dulak

and mimic her every move. The whole class will be hysterical and she won’t even say anything.

She seriously must be the most oblivious womanto ever live. I don’t want to go to her class

Next period!

If I never go to her class again,

that will be TOO soon!

Yea, me either!

I just don’t know how to respect a woman who has NO rules?

The woman obviously doesn’t care about our education, so why

should I care about being in her class? I could sleep

Through her class and she wouldn’t care… That’s a GREAT

Idea!!!

A pass? I wonder what for?

COMEIN

Please take a Seat Ms.Goldberg

I canstand….

How are you? HowDid your test go

yesterday?

Um, it went ok, I think..I studied REALLY

hard.

You did fine. Don’t worry! That is not why I called you in here!

OH.. Um, ok?

A few days ago, you were

in my room talking about Mrs. Dulak…

You mentioned that you don’t really pay attention in her class… that you don’t respect her

because she lets you get awaywith things? Is that correct?

Um, yes!

Well, I don’t like feeling disrespected. Nor do I like when students don’t pay attention in my class. So I have to tell

you that you have not been at your best in my classlately. Often, you aren’t listening to my lectures; you are

staring out the window and are inattentive. I feel as though you are somewhere else in my class

Ok, I’ll try better…Thanks.

Mrs. Conradwill make me feel better..I’ll go talk to

her

Jamie, what’swrong?

Ma Ma Ma Mr. Bonk said I don’t pay attention

in his class..

Excuse me?!?! Thereis no way that is true. I am going to find out

what is going on. Wait here!

k…

So, um.. What did he say?

I am not getting involved. Go talk to him

like an adult if you are upset. You are being immature!

Come in..Here we go again!

Hello, is there something I can help

you with?I was just wondering how you could

say that I don’t pay attention in your class? I do! I do listen. I try so hard in your class,

and show you the most respect of anyone I know!!!!

No question! Your worst is better than a lot of peoples best! But I respect you as well. You are one of my strongest students

And I want it to say that way. So before it got to a point where you were Really not paying attention. I told you because I respect

you and I didn’t want to call home or you a bad report card. I told you because you respect me, and I know you do, so I in turn,

was respecting you.

I’m sorry if I upset you, but you had to know. I want you to

take my class seriously,And I want you to succeed.

Ok.. I understand

Things are not always what they seem

THE END!!!!!
