This Week in (leftover) Pictures


Q: What do you get when you mix dried ice with water?.


A: Tim taking a dozen pictures of it with his camera.

Q: Where did Tim get dried ice?


A: Baskin Robbins, silly... They package take-out containers with it here and Tim has students with parents who like to give him ice cream.

Q: What semi-disturbing habit has Tim picked up in recent days?


A: Spying on the Poly School shuttlebuses as they come and go from the school...

Q: What was the best payoff from Tim's spying so far?


A: Catching one of the shuttlebus drivers shaving in his reflection.

And yes, the question-and-answer charade has gone on long enough... Here we have a wonderful picture of me by a student in his picture diary:


Apparently that's what I look like when I read out vocabulary words in blue sneakers and nothing else.

(Also, do you think the single line on my forehead is a dig at my receding hairline? Some of these kindergarteners are clever, so I wouldn't be too surprised.)

Side note: The way children here draw pictures is hilarious. Everyone looks like anime characters because they do the curved-lines-for-eyes thing.


It rained like a grandmother today and the student in the middle had to borrow another teacher's shirt, so that's why he looks like he's in a dress.

Other than that, click on the picture to zoom in and see what kids have written... They were suppossed to write a letter to me and at least one of them says they love me.

Maybe two.

  • They're in first grade!

    This is their second language and they're easily reading and writing beyond the level of of average first graders at home.

    (... at least in Mrs. Lovett's class.)
