Do not oversleep and miss the school bus-you’ll be late.That’s a habit teachers generally don’t appreciate. Never tell your friends at school that you still wet your bed.They are sure to tease you, and you’ll wish that you were dead.Never call your teacher a name when she’s not near you.Teachers’ ears are excellent, so they can always hear you.Do not read a textbook when your hands aren’t clean-it’s trickyto separate the pages when the pages get real sticky.When you go out for a team it’s always wise to practice.When you are a substitute, the bench can feel like cactus.Do not copy homework from a friend who is a dummy.If you do, I’m sure that you will get a grade that’s crummy.And if your report card’s bad, don’t blame it on your buddy.Kiss up to your parents quick, or they might make you study.

My Teacher Sees Right Through MeI didn’t do my homework.My teacher asked me, “Why?”I answered him, “It’s much too hard.”He said, “You didn’t try.” I told him, “My dog ate it.”He said, “You have no dog.”I said, “I went out running.”He said, “You never jog.” I told him, “I had chores to do.”He said, “You watched TV.”I said, “I saw the doctor.”He said, “You were with me.” My teacher sees right through my fibs,which makes me very sad.It’s hard to fool the teacherwhen the teacher is your dad.
