Survival of the Fittest


We are all teachers, in one way or another. This post is for you.

School Survival Kit

To help you survive a great year at school: (this also includes the "school of life")

Toothpick - to help you "pick" out the good qualities in others and yourself

Crayon - to color your day bright and cheerful

Hugs and Kisses - for when you need a hug

Candle - for when you're up late

Eraser - to remind you everyone makes mistakes

Rubber band - to remind you to be flexible

String - to tie things together when everything falls apart

Pencil
- to "write your wrongs"

Marbles
- to replace the ones you've lost (we enclosed extra, you'll need them later)

Lifesaver Candy
- you are a lifesaver to many of your students

Paperclip
- to hold it all together

and a Jewel - because you are as valuable as any precious stone

Toothpick - because you WILL get food in your teeth after lunch

Crayon - because you can eat it with little ill effect

Hugs and Kisses - because chocolate has a calming effect

Candle - because you may need to burn some papers now and then

Eraser - because not everyone owns a laptop yet

Rubber band - because sometimes you need to attack someone without hurting them from a distance

String - for cats?

Pencil - because not everyone owns a laptop yet

Marbles - see "Rubber band"

Lifesaver Candy - see "Hugs and kisses"

Paperclip - because it can be bent into a lockpick

and a Jewel - for when you need some extra cash
