investigate the desk


What's on your favorite teacher's desk? What's on that scary teacher's desk?

What can you tell about your teacher by looking at that desk?

a. she's disorganized

b. she really likes to collect cat statues

c. she went sailing during summer vacation

d. she has cute kids of her own

e. she has cool stuff that you could talk to her about

The answer is ????
Go ahead. Investigate your teacher's desk. Don't be rude about it. Just casually look around at the stuff on there. It's not a good idea to start picking things up or rearranging those cat satues. Teachers decorate their classrooms and desks with things they like. They bring in things from home. Things from trips. Artwork their kids made. Things their friends gave them. I bet there are even decorations students made or gave them.

Are there things on the desk that you have in common? Maybe you like bendy action figures. Check the desk for action figures. Teachers are interesting people who have lots of experiences to share with you. Your teacher would love to talk about the personal things on her desk. but not during math class. Wait for the right time and ask a nice question. Get to know your teacher better. You'll enjoy being in the classroom even more when you have good relationship with the person in charge. happy students + happy teachers = happy school days
Who doesn't like happy school days?
