Class of 2011- Memorable Class Moments

Class of 2011 - Memorable Moments!
It happens to everyone: words get jumbled between the brain and mouth, we enter into a conversation a moment too late... or we are simply confused. Ironically, these are the moments that help us remember the important information from class; laughter is a powerful learning tool. This is an opportunity to remember the special moments, lessons, activities, characters, and, of course, the miscommunications from our class. Help me to keep track of them and I will compile these into a booklet at the end of the year. Please remember that class rules apply: I will not tolerate any malicious attacks on any student or teacher. This is not meant to poke fun at anyone; it is meant in a spirit of reliving the occasional happy moment in our very special circle of hell :-)

A few to get started:
"Time to play"

The Furies attack on poor Kevin & Sam.

Miss Arney to Harrison (after hearing his circles of hell): "Harrison, THERAPY!"
Harrison: "OK, I'll join you."

Question: What gift did Hera give Pandora. Hint: it killed the cat (& begins with a "C").
Answer (Aud): chipmunk?

Eliminating "like" from our language means that it takes LIKE five minutes to say LIKE one sentence!

"time to play" hmm i recall that from last year. THINGS CAN NOT BE REUSED! GOSH!

Erica Guerin said...

It is really hard to stop saying like but even though girls say it a lot so do boys like when chris said they had an advantage over the girls. but then the first boy to say something in the discussion said like right away.

Miss Arney said...

Just keep working at it, Erica. The more you are conscious of what you are saying, the easier it will be to stop the verbal bad habits.

Miss Arney: "How many ships set sail for Troy to reclaim Helen of Sparta?"

Student: "That's easy! One went North, one went South, oh wait... that's the Princess Bride(can't underline)!"

Miss Arney: "She's basically the female Atticus"
Kevin F: "Fatticus!"

Miss Arney: "Why did Jem go get his pants?"

George D: walks in late and being the delirious person, sits in the completely wrong seat.
Ms. Arney: "Are you George?"
G:"Yes..."
MA:"You don't sit there George..."
G:*blush* "Oh Okay."
Time passes by in the class and eventually Ms. Arney makes a comment about Kevin Finer.
G:*Snickers*
MA:(With the wrath of God)"You were late, correct?"
G:"..........Yes"
MA:"Than I wouldn't be laughing..."

Ms. Arney: So honestly what did you guys think of the story?

Maggie:Honetsly...you thought Doodle would die in the first 3 lines then he begins to have some hope and then he heart BLOWS UP! its like he was walking up a mountain and almost makes it but as soon as you think he will succeed...he falls off the cliff and dies.

Thanks Ms. Arney for introducing me to the most depressing story i've ever read.=)

(Are these in third person or what?)

(After some sort of grammar mistake)
Ms. A.: Kevin, stand up and during.
Kevin stands up, turns chair over, and puts one leg up on it, with arms outstretched.

(And more recently while explaining the superego)
Ms. A: So if you're hungry, why don't you just walk down to the cafeteria?
Joe H: Because if we do then you'll kill us.
Kevin Finer (either in an incredibly genius or idiotic move) stands up and walks to Ms. A and says, "Please excuse me." Waits a few seconds, "No, forget excuse me." and walks around.

Miss Arney said...

Miss A: "OK, Brian: what is the unholy trinity of demons? The mneumonic is LAB."
Brian: "Um...Beelzebub, Lucifer....and....um....Arney?" [stands up, does a snap with a twist, and sits down]

After seeing another Amazon blogger describe an English 9H novel as "boaring", Kevin F exclaims: "This person HAD to be in your class!"
