Wasted effort Mr. Fogarty. I always wondered if Greg named him after John Fogarty of CCR.

Fogarty, er forget about it!

I used to teach at an elementary school. I brought a whistle to school once. It was just a little plastic toy whistle, but it got the kids’ attention.

Pop quiz time. That’ll get their attention.

As thick as you are

PAY ATTENTION

My words are a matter of pride

already broken… like pie crust… hmm, pie crust. :g

I had a junior high school teacher who, when he felt the class wasn’t paying attention, would loudly smack a yardstick against the blackboard and yell ’SHAZAM!" That usually worked!

He needs to channel Sister Mary Elephant (those of a certain age will know this reference).

How are the fingernails?

Long enough?

You can’t just post a rule. You gotta use consequences or the kids will end up like astrongblackwoman or other trolls (they have stalked me and when I said to stop harassing me, they cried victim)

scrape your fingernails over the chalkboard, that will get their attention.
