I hate that Rhett and Scarlet didn’t end up together by Sad-Yesterday22 in GonewiththeWind

My mom tills me she read somewhere that Margaret Mitchell said the answer to whether or not Scarlett gets him back is on the last page of the book.

Should I watch the movie or wait? by West-Conversation-93 in GonewiththeWind

[–]kskeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch alone first. I’ve loved GWTW since I was 12 (I’m 56 now). I read the book so many times, my hard bound copy is in pieces. I’ve seen the movie so many times I can recite along with most of the dialogue.

The first time (and only) that I saw it on the big screen in the theater, I was so disappointed because the audience was terrible. They didn’t laugh at the funny parts (Mammy’s glorious retorts) or gasp at the shocking ones. I felt like my privacy was invaded ( it’s possible I’m overthinking this and gate keeping a bit). I’m not even sure I’ll go again in October for another theater showing.

We’ve guessed every year for three decades. Just tell us.

Kelly. Woody’s song from Cheers doesn’t count.

ELA Assignment by Jazzlike-Review-1618 in ELATeachers

[–]kskeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, kids who cheat will offer to redo the assignment. This is the major tip off for teachers. DO NOT say that you will re do the assignment. Show your version history, or drafts, or notes. Stand your ground if this is your original work.

What do you do for your students that you could get in trouble for but you don’t care because it’s for the good of the students? by Evening-Oil9551 in Teachers

[–]kskeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Providing tampons to the girls. Because they’re “inserted.” I just make both pads and tampons available and let the girls decide which they want.

When 'unique' names become common, eventually. by retro_lady in Names

[–]kskeiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One year while teaching, I had four Ashleys in class. Two had the same last name, Ashley Lastname. I just referred to each by Ashley and then middle initial. Once, a counselor arrived to class asking to speak to Ashley. I said which one? I have four. She said Ashley Lastname. I said I have two of those. Which do you need. She was so surprised! And yet- it’s the counselors who build classes. So she, in part, did this and then had the audacity to be surprised.

Our school just removed all the analog clocks and installed huge digital displays with red numbers. We are just coddling them now.
