Introducing the newest contributor to your local blog...

Hey there! Today is my first contribution to this fine blog. I wanted to start of with a bang--you know--something controversial, yet not trivial, something exciting, but not irrelevant, something important, but not boring, so I bring to you a post about study halls. Yes, study halls. As a student teacher, I have come to the belief that study halls are a waste of time (yours and mine). Students neither study, nor hall.

As a Christian teacher, I find myself using study halls as a time to get to know my students and let them know I care about their concerns. My students use the study hall to talk, yell, bicker, laugh, throw things, annoy each other, annoy me, and create general chaos.

Have mercy on your study hall teachers! Bring something to study--perhaps your Bible? We might not be allowed to read in front of you, but we would find encouragement watching you read in front of us!

That is all--now leave me! :)

I think the smiley at the end of this post is very cute.

I really like you!
Although this post in no way applied to my life, I liked it.
It was not petty.
It did not end with the words "SUCK IT."
It applied to your life and the lives of your intended audience members.
This is everything a good post should be!
You have earned a double thumbs-up!
