Are notebook grenades a thing now!?

Welcome back to Teachers Off Duty! Join Bri Richardson, Devin Siebold, and James Yon in this 'Crying in My Car Podcast' crossover where there's no holding back on the craziest classroom chaos stories! Like teaching isn't hard enough, we have chaos slowing down our lessons like one kindergartner who glued her crayons under her desk on the first day, to another student who was so annoyed by the lack of story time that they threw all their clothes off to make his displeasure make a statement.

Remember when we asked our student to share his milk with the class - right, because we didn't! Just imagine the snap back to reality during an actual peaceful day when out of nowhere a student decides to turn into a human fountain, spitting milk on his classmates directly behind him.

Sometimes we're just asking for it like the time when a science experiment went all kinds of wrong by completely filling the lab with bubbles. Not the kind of rave we're hoping for.

Speaking of science, you won't believe what a student brought from home to "enhance" a biology lesson. It wasn't *so* bad until it decided to go home early! You just got to hear it to believe it.

Jump right to it!

But there's more - how could we prepare ourselves for a student starting a conga line during a math test. Imagine stepping out for just a second and returning to the surprise of a full blown makeshift carnival being run in your classroom. Whoof, there's not enough coffee to get us through that. So order that venti, take the long way to school, and tune into this week's Teachers Off Duty! Maybe that math test conga line wasn't such a bad idea…
