Classroom Comedy: 22 Hilarious Tweets About Teacher Life
I have been lucky in my life to have had, and also to have worked with, some incredible teachers. Smart, creative, dedicated, and tireless are just some of the words that come to mind when I think of the teachers I have known.
I remember my 4th grade teacher always told me I was a really good writer, which inspired me to write more and more. And now here I am, many (I’m not telling how many) years later, writing to all of you.
So thank you, Mrs. Wade, wherever you are, and thank you to all the wonderful teachers out there – you are appreciated more than you know.
Hope you enjoy my little compilation of teacher tweets!

6yo: Teacher, are you married? Me: No 6yo: Me either.
In 8th grade we had to turn in a weekly journal and the day after I turned in one about the kid I had a crush on in class my teacher redid the seating chart and put us next to each other real wing woman work
In case you were wondering what teaching is like I told my 6th grade students to write a myth and one student’s first sentence was “A long long time ago in 1999…”
My 13 y/o daughter told me that a boy in class kept yelling out “Your Mom” to the math teacher to answer his questions so the teacher stopped class, called his mom and made the boy apologize. This dude can teach algebra and life lessons at the same time.
I had a family show up fifteen minutes late to my Back-to-School meet and greet. As they walk through my classroom door, the little boy says, “We’re late because my dad had to poop.”
Today a spider was hanging from the ceiling, and my students noticed it but continued to take notes and pay attention to my presentation. That is how amazing I am at classroom management.
I’m kidding. It was absolute chaos. Students screamed, until I caught it.
Principal: I just wanted to touch base with you. Your daughter was baiting seagulls into the playground with gummy worms and actually caught one; Like in her arms. It did bite her—not hard, but I needed to inform you that we filed an incident report
Today the 8 year old told me she deliberately spelled a word wrong in the last round of the school spelling bee because “if you lose you get a piece of candy, but if you win you just get a boring medal”
"First grade is wild. You're learning how to be a human, how to write things down, how to manage friendships and follow rules, and all the while everybody's teeth are falling out all over the place."
