That was my response when the yearbook editor comes marching into my 6th period with his Canon Rebel in hand telling me he needs my photograph. But not just a little snapshot to say "cheese." Nope. In front of all of my 26 little teenagers, he says "I need a full body, one of you standing up, one behind your desk, one of you teaching, and one helping a student."
I wanted to say, are you kidding me?? You do realize that you have just completely ruined the rest of my class period! My students, of course, loved this disruption---not only not having to do work, but getting to see Miss Belvin being photographed ON TOP OF not having to do work. Needless-to-say, I was sweating. If this situation has never happened to you, please know that it is embarrassing.
After what seemed like a zillion pictures, I was actually a little excited about the fact that the administration picked me for "Teacher of the Month." :) I had never even thought about getting selected, as I am a first year teacher. I must be doing a few things right! One of the study-skill teachers was in charge of making a poster for the "Teacher of the Month", so I took a few pictures and posted them below.
P.S. I did end up threatening to send a few of my boys to the office after the camera man left my classroom. Luckily, we were able to finish up our lesson on graphing quadratics!
