Quiz question (over The Great Gatsby): What is Gatsby's reaction to Daisy's child?
Student answer: He was shook that she had a child.

Thinking about quizzes going into the new semester; I've had some interesting responses over the years:
"aint gon lie I dint read"
"I didn't get that far"
"i dont care"
"IDK - no cap"
During my first year of teaching, I experienced my first diehard funny with students...
We were discussing our unit vocabulary, and one of our words was "dehumanization." I asked if anyone thought they might know what it meant, and after a couple of guesses, one student said, "dead."
If this year taught us anything, it's that:
1) Workers keep America going, not billionaires.
2) Corporate profits don't trickle down to workers.
3) Poverty is a policy choice.
4) Health care is a human right.
5) Strikes work.
I hope we act on these lessons in the new year.

Get you someone who looks at you the way Rook listens to ancient elven gods. ๐คฃ

Image shows the Duo mascot facing away from the camera looking over its left shoulder, with an apparent rear end facing the camera. Text underneath reads "262 days was your longest streak. Okay, hot stuff? Can you keep the flame lit?"
I feel like Duo might be sending some mixed signals...๐คฃ
