I saw the picture and thought “That’s more sad than funny, really…”
Then I read the accompanying story and I can’t get over it.
One area of our website is “real teacher stories” where teachers can share their unbelievable classroom tales! I received this gem this morning and almost fell out of my chair.
A little girl drew the above picture and the next day she returned to school with a note from her mom. The note read:
Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer. I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it.
Her picture doesn’t show me dancing around a pole. It’s supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Smith
this is a perfect example of why you shouldn’t ever be quick to judge.
