Get ready to laugh your way to the end of the school year with the Teachers Off Duty podcast crew and special TikTok teacher guest, the massively funny Casey Hamilton, @mrhamilton! From crying in your car on your lunch break to the hilarious antics of students and teachers alike, this episode is packed with all the moments that lead to end-of-the-year teacher trauma.
To kick things off, Gabe warms up his punting leg with a funny anecdote about kids playing games on their chrome books and we share a string of jokes that will leave you in stitches. Then, Tell gets candid about the emotional rollercoaster of the school year, recounting moments of crying at lunch while also expressing gratitude for not having to take kids home with him. And, Casey joins in with a hilarious observation that perfectly captures the end-of-year exhaustion.
We discuss the signs that indicate the end of the year is near, from putting sunscreen on pre-k kids to students advocating for other tired teachers. And Bri reveals that her indifference towards observations is a clear indication that the year is winding down.
Lauran shares a memorable curriculum project involving the rock and roll hall of fame and a wax museum that helps to keep students engaged. And we delve into the topic of teachers having to buy their own supplies, from printers and ink to coats and basketball shoes.
Join the laughter and camaraderie as we celebrate the end of the school year in the most hilarious way possible.
