Things I should not have to say...

Things I should not have to stay, but say multiple times per day.

(MS/HS setting)

- Carry the ice back to class. Please don't walk and try and ice your ankle at the same time.

I have no idea what you mean when when you arrive and stare at me...and do not offer complaint or words or mumbles or give any indication that you are sick, injured, dying etc

PINCH you nose if it’s bleeding! Catching the blood in your hands does not stop it. ?

Stop taking  your eye out you are going to break it.

MULTIPLE times this week:  "Your toothbrush should not be in a ziploc bag with other students' toothbrushes. THROW THEM AWAY!" yikes?‍♀️

If it hurts when you do this (extreme arm twist, poking bruise).... stop doing it.

After using the restroom, "Did you wash your hands?" Almost all of them go back and wash!

This is a great thread to help us get through this Monday.

My contribution - just this morning - giving a nose blowing lesson to a middle schooler.

" Go back and flush" followed by  "no you didn't, I can hear the toilet flush from my desk that is inches from the restroom door".

"Oh, you didn't tell your parents because it isn't bothering you enough to tell them? Well, then I don't think it is bothering you enough to miss class..."

also "Ice doesn't help hangnails"

Your pass does not belong on my desk.

Ice does not help things that happened x days ago.
