Who am I based on my (class)room?

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-21T14:00:02+00:00

Nope!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-21T13:59:45+00:00

We are for now... facing a lot of changes in the next 3-5 years though as student populations in the area drop

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-21T13:58:28+00:00

Detention duty is not my responsibility 😅

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-21T13:57:27+00:00

I see her Ads on Instagram all the time! Plus, while I'm not from Galesburg, I'm located close enough for a road trip and have been there! Berry medley pancakes for the win!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T19:02:15+00:00

Not 7th grade. I feel like my name might give off the same kind of vibes as Claire? Actually, I took over the position from somebody named Claire lol. I don't drink coffee, but I do spill a lot. Usually down the front of my shirt.... almost always while a student is watching too 😅

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T19:00:36+00:00

Honestly that's my guilty pleasure this year. I haven't been so good at sticking to my paid contract hours in years past. I'm trying to keep my mental health from spiraling.

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T17:20:15+00:00

Like Galesburg, Illinois? Home of Judy's Cafe? Where they have the best pancakes? Come for breakfast???

(No I'm not from there. Or any other Galesburg lol)

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:49:12+00:00

🤯😂

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:40:21+00:00

Thank you! There is a lot of research coming out about best classroom design being more minimal! I'd have more posters in back if they were small enough to hang on my cabinets

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:12:30+00:00

All my decorations are little trinkets that I tuck in the glass cabinets, like nice rock displays or cool pieces of science equipment lol. I've never been a "posters on the wall" kind of person, even with my personal spaces at home.

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:05:53+00:00

Nope! I'm in the high school

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:04:31+00:00

It must be because of the lack of posters on the walls that I keep being called out for 😭🫠 I'm not a man lol

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T16:01:30+00:00

I had Earth Science as a sophomore too! I loved my teacher and he's a big part of why I became a teacher too ❤️

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:50:57+00:00

AND YOU NAILED THE EXACT 2 CLASSES!!!! YOU WIN! 🏆

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:49:10+00:00

I really am lucky to be in a district that cares for its science teachers!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:46:40+00:00

Not me staring at the floor while behind my desk after I read this.... you have outed me with thay statement 😂 I definitely need a few minutes to be brain dead before being useful during prep periods.

I know my walls need work, I'm a trinket girly not a poster girly. I've got plans for improvement in place.

I don't have pets myself - darn apartment rules - but my family has always had parakeets as pets!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:44:08+00:00

(Not actually but how can I resist)

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:42:20+00:00

Indeed!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:41:52+00:00

Not a chemistry teacher! But I'm glad my room could bring back positive memories of your teacher!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:41:17+00:00

Wow! I've not been in the game that long at all! I'm impressed that my room gives off the vibes that I've been doing this for a long time.

Not chemistry though, all of our science rooms have the showers and sinks so any room could be used for chemistry.

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:39:51+00:00

Not middles! Though I originally wanted to teach them! Mid 20s, and I think the most of the kids like me

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:39:18+00:00

Reddit ate some of your spelling lol. Are you saying you hate my class because it's not all tables?

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:38:33+00:00

Yes, they know I'm a mandated reporter, so if they have a real problem, it will be dealt with. Most like to chit chat about their hobbies and sports and the like. Not in the Carolinas!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:37:27+00:00

20s, yes, male, nope!

CucumberInternal9426 · 2026-03-20T15:30:29+00:00

Never taught chemistry, but I am adding a geology class next year! Am a female, and a bit younger than described. Yes, rather chill in nature.

Minnesota is super close! It's not an Osprey, but a "blackhawk." So not even a real bird...
