Now I know in the past, people have let you behave like monkeys … But this is a new world and a different time. I have a job to do and I will get it done…One way or another… Need I remind you…

Most of the time I am just a harmless kitten!

I really just like teaching!
If I don’t get to teach…I get a little cranky…

Rule #8
Raise your hand…Once I looked forward to the day that teenagers would shout my name across a crowded room, but those days, like my hair, are mostly gone…

Rule #10
Bring your own materials!If I catch you begging, you will write a long essay on poverty in America! (but I will give you a pencil and paper for that!)

Writing Assignments…Rough drafts must be double spaced. Skip a line so I have room to make comments and suggestions!I take your education as a writer very seriously… You will write every day… Some days will be more difficult than others. Get over it and get used to it! There is only one way to learn how to write and that is by writing!
