40 Things Teachers Don’t Want Their Students to Know

When I was quite young, I was the sort of kid who didn’t dare make a joke in class, let alone an inappropriate joke, but I certainly was in classes with students who loved cracking wise to the teacher. Usually, the teacher would just tell them to be quiet, but now I’m wondering if inside, they were laughing.

I guess that’s one difficult thing about being a teacher: you are the one who always has to keep order and make sure the class doesn’t get too out of hand, so even if a kid does something really funny, it’s the teacher’s job to keep it together so that chaos doesn’t erupt.
