Student says to me today, "What do you call an alligator that is a detective?". Not knowing where this conversation is going, I hesitantly answer, "I don't know." Student proudly beams and replies, "An investi-gator!" 🤣 #studentjoke #mademelaugh #kidsthesedays

Student said to me today, "This technology is going to be the death of me." He's 12. My ensuing laughing fit brought on the question, "Are you having a heart attack?" When I denied the claim, his response was, "Oh good. Who would teach me Social?" #comedygold #kidsthesedays

During a Google Meet today, one of my students started speaking with an autotune voicemod that he downloaded. Then everyone started showing their pets. Not gonna lie, I laughed until I cried. Then we did Social. Best 👏 Class 👏 Ever 👏 #EmotionalIntelligence #KidsTheseDays

Same student this morning wants to prop the door to keep it open. Suggests using the kleenex box from my desk. I say no, I need that. "Oh right," he says. "For when you get sad." 😳 #isitthatobvious #teachingin2020 #kidsthesedays

Student asks to use the bathroom. Not noticing the time, I say yes. He's walking out the door as I notice his sock feet. "You're ready for break," I say. "Miss Olson," he replies, "I'm emotionally, psychologically, and physically ready for recess!" Same buddy; same. #teachertired

Used TikTok to demonstrate the importance of agriculture in my first chapter of Social Studies. One of my students found the TikToker, went on his LiveFeed, asked him for a shout out to her teacher...and he complied. JUST HAD MY 5 SECONDS OF FAME! #kidsthesedays #malleeboy3490

As a high school teacher in Alberta, we are moving to remote learning starting Mon. This will be impossible for many students without home internet access. Telus & Shaw here’s your chance to help by providing basic internet service to kids while learning at home.@TELUS @ShawInfo

Started out so snarly today but by 9:45 am my attitude had righted itself...cause of my students. THEY are my "Why?", THEY are my reason. Students of 2020: resiliency at its finest 👌 #hopeforthefuture #faithinhumanity

Protecting one man's ego is not worth damaging the legitimacy of our democracy.

Someone's cell phone went off in Social class today. Upon hearing the notification, one of my students commented, "Is that you, Squidward?" 🤣 #comicalmoments #teacherlife

Mentioned to my students that I had a meeting after school today. Upon seeing my tired and dejected look, one of my students replied with, "Telepooooort!". I wish, lil' buddy; I wish. #studentquotes #perceptive #shortpd #grateful

One of my students banged his elbow when he slipped outside on some ice. I asked him if he was alright, and his response was, "Yeah, I'm ok. I mean, my elbow hurts, but at least it's not Bastogne." #BandOfBrothers #HistoryTeacherForTheWin #RememberOurVeterans

Mentioned "Finding Nemo" in class today and a student told a story about watching "Titanic". Thought she was completely off-topic until she mentioned that a kid who was watching with her kept chanting "Shark bait...ooo-waha!" as the ship was sinking #TeacherLife #FunInClass

A student gave a kitten to a classmate. The kitty had facial markings that looked like a tiny little mustache. The kitten has been name "Kittler". I'm not sure whether to laugh or be horrified. #historicalawareness #studentcreativity #stillcringeworthy #funnynotfunny
