Funny teaching story of the day:

During my third period class I gave my students time to work on their study guide for their big test on Wednesday. One of my boys asked to go to the bathroom. A few minutes later another teacher is walking him back to my classroom. Apparently he was texting a girl so they could meet up outside the bathroom to make out. I told him he lost his bathroom privileges for my class and that he was to sit down. Not two minutes later I catch him texting on his phone. I confiscated his phone and put it in my desk. Next period it started vibrating in my drawer. I looked to see who it was and discovered another student sending texts like "Hey Ms. Kennedy" and multiple missed phone calls. I guess this student thought it'd be funny to send these messages to cause a disturbance. Genius he is, he didn't realize his name would come up on the phone. Armed with proof he was texting during school, I promptly looked up his schedule, went to his classroom, and confiscated his phone as well. Silly kids thinking they can outsmart me, hah!
