Many of our teachers here at Lansing Middle School have had funny and embarrassing moments. Some moments are not as embarrassing as others like tripping over students binders (Mrs. Snodgrass) or accidentally wearing different colored shoes (Mrs. Lang). Here are a few teachers who were brave enough to share there stories.
After talking with a student about his homework Mr. Reeser walked backwards thinking the chair was behind him and of course it wasn’t behind and he fell flat on his rear. When talking with him he told me it was not fun…..at all.
At parent teacher conferences it was lunch time. Mrs. Jenkins was making her spaghetti when red spaghetti sauce spilt down the front of her shirt. She ended up going home and changing.
Mrs. Andrews gets very excited when teaching about Social Studies. When she gets excited she tends to spit. When she spits it gets all over the students in the front row. I really feel sorry for those unlucky students.
When a student made a gargoyle it came out of the kiln with a broken leg. Mrs. Baysinger super-glued the leg back on and let it dry on her desk. What Mrs. Baysinger didn’t know was that the glue was leaking onto her desk. The gargoyle got stuck to her desk and she spent lots of time trying to pull it off and scraping glue off of her desk.
So you’re not alone, all you accident-prone, mistake-making students… teachers are human too!
