Today my students played an April Fools Day joke on me by all of them coming in late (I knew, though, because I heard them talking yesterday). So when they finally came in I had written on the board “Exciting News!!” I didn’t get to it right away and waited until we did our opener. I glanced at the board and made a speech about how excited I was because someone was sponsoring all 4+ programs at Dave and Busters—we’d get 2 free hours of game time and free lunch!!! They were so excited, until I yelled “April Fools!” 😂
After min h I came into the classroom and found some of the students T-P’d me!! 😂
