Im not returning the pen.... I already broke a part of it and sent it in the envelope for kicks.
Anyways I don't like my principal because he has butchered the cycling team... And btw, although some teachers are nice and actually good teachers, most of the teachers I have experienced in Florida ignore students and don't give a rats ass about their job of teaching children. And the fact that the principal submits to the school board of directors on funding cuts instead of fighting for us students. GTFO and thank you for the nice and shiny pen.
The only great teachers I met were my 8th grade earth science teacher and my choir teacher. My science teacher was able to come up with interesting ways to help us remember important concepts such as the layers of the earth (the lithosphere goes under the atmosphere). My choir teacher is also great because when she teaches choir and music theory she does it in a way that is fun and generally tries to keep the students enjoying the class and the performances they do. I have also had a good yearbook class teacher , a good math (geometry) teacher, and a good tv-production teacher. Other than that most teachers in my school, although some attempt do a decent job, are just not enthusiastic about working with students and give mostly book work instead of actually teaching the lesson. And then there are horrible teachers who give lessons straight out of the book in a monotone voice, droning on and on without actually stopping to elaborate the material or discuss it or teachers that refuse to help students.
In my total school life I had many teachers and the ratios of great to good to bad teachers is 1:1:4.
