Quote of the Day (power)

Just a few quotes from students during a brief (?) power outage.

“Mister, are we just going to sit around and wait for them to cancel school?”

Student: “Mister, how are we going to learn if there’s no power?”
Me: “Don’t worry, I’ll write stuff up on the board.”
Student: “Oh you mean like they did in the Stone Age?”

Student: “Mister, I head you had a funny video you showed to your other class.”
Me: “Who told you that?”
Student: “[student name]. Can you play it for us?”
Me [pointing to the projector with no power]: “With what?”
Student: “With the projector.”
I continue to point to the powerless projector.
Student: “What? I don’t get it.”
Still pointing to the powerless projector.
Student: “Oh! I forgot that the power was out. Then why is it so bright in here?”
I turn to point to the open windows.
Student: “Oh. I thought the lights were on.” (11/14/19)
