That's All Folks

The lasts: 

lunch duty

recess

 schedule

lunch orders and attendence taking

 grading papers

classroom managing

wearing the visor and eyepatch

oh and sometimes the shades

ringing the bell for order

 checking for high decibel sound levels

watching students present their work and lead the lesson

 drawing really big decimal points

pushing out the walls to make understanding perimeter easier

reading to the class

talking about potatoes and other Colonial foods
