What the Teacher says............
What the teacher says
What the teacher says and (what the teacher means)
1. Your son has a remarkable ability in gathering needed
information from his classmates. (He was caught cheating
on a test).
2. Karen is an endless fund of energy and viability.
(The hyperactive monster can't stay seated for five
minutes).
3. Fantastic imagination! Unmatched in his capacity for
blending fact with fiction. (He's definitely one of the
biggest liars I have ever
met).
4. Margie exhibits a casual, relaxed attitude to school,
indicating that high expectations don't intimidate her.
(The lazy thing hasn't done one assignment all term).
5. Her athletic ability is marvelous. Superior hand-eye
coordination. (The little creep stung me with a rubber
band from 15 feet away).
6. Nick thrives on interaction with his peers.
(Your son needs to stop socializing and start
working).
7. Your daughter's greatest asset is her demonstrative
public discussions. (Classroom lawyer! Why is it that
every time I explain an assignment she creates a class
argument).
8. John enjoys the thrill of engaging challenges with
his peers. (He's a bully).
9. An adventurous nature lover who rarely misses
opportunities to explore new territory. (Your
daughter was caught skipping school at the
fishing pond).
10. I am amazed at her tenacity in retaining her
youthful personality. (She's so immature that we've run out
of diapers).
11. Unlike some students who hide their emotion, Charles
is very expressive and open. (He must have written the
Whiner's Guide).
12. I firmly believe that her intellectual and emotional
progress would be enhanced through a year's repetition of
her learning environment. (Regretfully, we believe that she
is not ready for high school and must repeat the 8th grade).
13. Her exuberant verbosity is awesome!
(A mouth that never stops yacking).
