As a student teacher I can't strike, so instead I'm doing very normal things, such as doing the entire cha cha slide whilst sat on a spinny chair!

*Trying to help a student who has an incorrect answer*
Me: How did you get this answer?
Student 1: I copied off him
Me: Okay, how did you get this answer?
Student 2: I copied off him
Me: How did YOU get this answer?
Student 3: I worked it out
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Student: Miss, is [teacher] your sister?
Me: No, why?
Student: Well you're both maths teachers
Me: That's not how that works
Student: You both have red hair
Me: It's dyed
Student: and you're both around the same height.
Doing estimation with two classes today! I've realised that we're losing the metric system here... Lots of them struggled to understand how big a metre is or what a kilogram looks like. But I got some golden comments! On how tall the average man is, "5'10 isn't average, that's short!" I've learnt that I am about the same weight as a bag of sugar, but heavier than a car, according to some students! Really fun lesson!
