it's a different world than where I come from.
I was not the worlds greatest student. I slept in class, I was absent a lot, I generally did not put forth a lot of effort in most of my classes. BUT . . .
On what planet is it ok to be gone for FIFTEEN MINUTES to the bathroom? Really? And then look at the teacher like she's an idiot when she says 5-6 is probably more appropriate?
WHY would you ask to go to the bathroom ONCE, not protest at all when the teacher says no (the teacher always says no the first time.) and then WALK OUT five minutes later?
WHY WHY WHY do you come to school 10-15 minutes late VERY SINGLE DAY?
Why do you have a 14 in my class, which is based ONLY on doing classwork, and then ask me for extra credit?
As long as I live, I will never understand these children.

Geez, really? A 14?! I would think you would have to try REALLY hard to score a 14 average in class.. but why bother asking for extra credit? Honestly..
You should offer them the chance to stay after class one day and complete ever assignment they didn't do for like 1/4 credit! I'm sure that would go over well! :)

Oops.
Excuse me...did you just say a 14?????
yeah. like a 14 pecent. like 2 out of 12 assignments. and they get credit just for doing it . And that's not even the lowest one. I have kids who have actual zeros.
The problem is, if you let them stay after school, then you have to stay after school too. Which wouldn't be a big deal, if it got them to change their ways, but they always just go right back to how they were. The first 9 weeks they were allowed to turn in work late for full credit, and then partial credit, so you'd think they would've learned.
