I'm a sucker July 1 2009 at 8:55 PM Amber (Login Amber633 ) _I got talked into teaching summer school. One of the teachers had a family emergency and has to leave town, so I'm filling in for her.
It's going to be a long two weeks...

When the kids come in every morning just send them all outside to look for dodo eggs and trilobites.
I saw in that other post where you said that your kids come back the second week in August. Is that your regular kids? If so, that's just plain wrong. Regular kids (and regular teachers) shouldn't have to come back until at least Labor Day I say.

Do you get paid extra for it or is it part of your annual salary?
If you get paid extra - I wouldn't say you're a sucker... just a nice lady with a little extra cash on hand.Nothing like gunfire and screaming blood thirsty indians to wake you up in the morning! - Barkenstein

Yes, it's actual a nice little chunk of change, too. An hourly wage on top of my salary. I'll be a happy girl at the end of the month.
And yeah - the second week of August is when all students return.

Where do I sign?!
Yeah, I know. Worst part is, I think I subscribed to ELLE.

LOL!
I usually make people admit what they are doing.
No, I don't want a non-existant subscription to National Geographic but, I'll give you $20 for beer and smokes if you ask for it strait up.

What am I going to do with 40 subscriptions to Vibe magazine?
Actually, I just heard VIBE is folding.

WTF is Vibe? Sounds worse than ESPN (the magazine). Land sakes alive, the steak's alive.
