So, if we can laugh about the things teachers say, I imagine we may find a laugh or two taking a look at the things teachers like.  Really, teachers are unlike any other individuals.  Sayings abound regarding teachers being a rare breed.  We are rare that is.  Most of us came into education for reasons which ceased to exsit within the first hour after we began our first real teaching job.  It is those who love it who remain.  Being the unique souls that we are, we don't mind to make a bit of fun of ourselves.  So, here goes!

1.Anything free-from store displays to winning a raffle, if its free, we love it and we want it!

2.Carry out lunch-this is such a rare treat!  We would run over little old ladies to get to the lounge for lunch from a local resturant.  Most teachers do not have a full thirty minutes to eat therefore there is not enough time most days to make a trip to pick something up for lunch.

3.Jean Day-While dress codes have relaxed over the years it still feels great when Friday comes and we can adorn ourselves with non-teacher clothes (aka blue jeans).

4. Parents who know their kid isn't perfect!  We all love our children more than anything, but it is so much easier to work with the parent who realizes her child is human and is going to do all the things all the other children do!

5.  SNOW! (No explanation needed)

6.JUNE! (Again, it's self explanatory)

Well, those are the ones I can think of at the moment.  Again, I'm sure there are more.  Make your own list, have some fun and share what you come up with!  Be well, JMH
