#50: The Wrong Date
Middle school is a time when students’ hormones are starting to explode, and whether they are dating yet or not, they are most definitely starting to think about it. All the time. This 8th-grade Civics teacher sure piqued some class interest by telling them they would watch a film on dates. Maybe he should have specified what kind of dates.
Whether he knew what he was doing or not is debatable, but one thing is sure: all the 8th-graders were sorely disappointed. After all, why would they be interested in learning about a specific type of fruit in such great detail? Perhaps he was only teasing them since he so willingly turned it off. Hey, he’s a teacher with a heart of gold, after all.
