A poem of excuses...
"I don't get it
No one ever taught me this before
We didn't learn it that way
It's too hard
I HATE History, it is too boring
WHO CARES? THEY ARE ALL DEAD!!!
I'm never going to use this..."
"... wait a minute...
is that how you do it?
That's all there is to it?
That's so EASY!
Why didn't anyone else explain it to me like that?
That makes so much more sense than how I heard it before.
What? You don't get it either? I know how to do it now, let me show you."
"Mr. Mullen, I have a B in history!!! I have never had a B in history! You are a great teacher!"
"Mr. Mullen, I talked to my mom about the election and she said, 'how did you learn all that smart people talk?' I learned it from you! She has NEVER called me smart before! Thanks!"
/Why I do it.
