Laughter

The best part about being a teacher is laughing. Students/kids...they make you laugh. Not at them, with them. There are days where we can get to laughing so hard that I can barely catch my breath. Sometimes it starts off so innocently and the jokes between the students get going and the next thing you know you are bent over double.



Sometimes they do something that is so cute and innocent, you turn away and cover your mouth so you don't embarrass them laughing. If you have kids or teach, I'm sure you understand what I mean.



I love it when we have days of laughter. I love it when something silly is said and we all get to laugh. It really unites the entire class for those few moments and the students remain positive.



The only problem is that you can get so caught up laughing that you get off track with your lessons. At the same time, as long as it is not to frequent, it keeps things in the classroom light and everybody enjoys being there.
