RE: Kids (and their teachers) say the darndest things.

Your methods of teaching are simply awesome.
Stress can be positive. Many people perform better if they feel a manageable amount of stress. In addition, stress is a reality of life. I would never want to completely eliminate stress in my classroom. I merely want it to be at the appropriate level and show kids how to manage it. Because laughter is a great way to relieve stress, we do that quite a bit in my classroom.
Here I learned something, stress should be kept within limits, one shouldn't take hell of a stress, so that his brain will get crashed, neither we should take things for granted, we should be serious and take some stress, it's what life is.
A word to the wise, if you are speaking to a room full of 15-year-olds, never use the words "huge", "gigantic", "big" or "large" while a giant image of a naked man is being projected behind you.
We should not use these words in front of students less than 15 year's I agree on this, but tell me how can you show a naked man to 15 year old students?
I was incredibly serious. I began talking about the importance of being on time. I asked my students, "If you know that you have a business meeting every day at 11:30, are you going to show up late every day?"
Time management is a crucial thing, life is all about how we manage time.
