A memory from school
Any form of writing. You can take the memory only for the base and leave the details to your fiction. Suddenly I'm interested in this because - recently my history teacher didn't show up for two weeks. Then he carried on as nothing happened. Now, call me paranoid but I think he just gave us grades randomly. He gave us four in one evening and I didn't even understand what some of those were for. - It can be a memory that has stuck to your mind or it can have just happened.

Life Lesson In Middle School Math Class?

I was in 7th grade Math class back in 1993, and I hated Math with a passion (Ironically, I enjoying teaching it to my Pre-K students). My Math teacher not only made a difficult subject manageable, but he had a wicked sense of humor that made his class so much fun. I remember one day that he was drawing a image for the overhead projector (anyone else remember those?), and I believe it was Ms. Pac-Man with teeth. The teacher said she had teeth because she is evil, and she is evil because she is a woman. The girls in the class were getting fired up, while the boys (including me) were laughing. The teacher then said that men like hanging out with women, and that makes men stupid. The girls then relaxed, content with being evil over being stupid. I laughed to myself, knowing that our teacher had gotten us good. A lesson like this would never fly in school today - the 90s were just a unique time that I fondly reflect on often....
