If teaching were like football....

• Teachers would be well-paid and have an extensive wardrobe of school spirit attire
• We could call a time out to get our acts together
• Our accountability would be to our fans...who would pay money to see us flex our best and would cheer for us when we were successful and boo for us when we were losing
• They would play cool warm up music for us before the school day started
• We could tackle people who got in our way!
• Parent/Teacher conferences would be like a bowl game and I would always win

Mr. Pete and I attended our first NFL game today. It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, the football players were talented, and the Chipotle was...pretty good.
