  Fortunately my school has a lot of diversity, along with this diversity comes a lot of interesting personalities.......some of my favorites from today: 1. The Self dubbed Getto Indian--he believes himself to be the most getto guy from India around. I told him otherwise of my friend Ali from high school and he then asked if Ali was Muslim....so he then dubbed himself the Most Getto Hindu Indian around--he comes into class rapping everyday and cracks me up. Today it was all about the rap competition he is entering tomorrow. He definitely makes me smile. Not only is he a good student, but when the rest of the class is talking, he shouts out "Your out of control guys"---today we did a earthworm dissection lab.
After they dissected the worm I assigned different groups body systems to go around and talk about. As I was milling around the room I heard him describing the circulatory system in a native Indian accent, which he normally doesn't have. When I inquired about his change his partner informed me that he uses that voice whenever there is a substitute teacher. One time apparently the whole class was laughing about it and the sub got upset thinking the class was making fun of the accent and then tried to comfort him-----you got to give it to the kind for having a sense of humor. 2. The Fashion Plate---I have never seen this girl wear the same thing twice.
Her closet must be never ending. 3. The Siamese Twins--two best friends in the same class. They do everything together including asking me if they can one day be my bridesmaids---??? I don't even have a boyfriend...crazy girls...... 4. The Boys with the Same Last name---I have two boys in class with the same last name.
Today they choose to work together dissecting the earthworm. My mentor teacher was giving oral instructions on how to dissect the worm, but the boys went ahead and started dissecting from the anterior end *(opposed to the posterior end where they were supposed to start)---and cut to deep basically destroying their worm. When my mentor saw it she said they were getting a zero for they day. The boys got so upset, but not vocally upset. They looked like little puppy dogs who had lost their toy. They then asked if they could get a new worm, to which my mentor replied "No".
To the side my mentor and I discussed if they should get a new worm. We determined they could and she sent me over to tell them. I said "okay boys, you can get a new worm. " I might add at this point they were sitting at the lab desk with their heads hung in despair. One of them looked up at me and said "Really? " in a voice similar to how Oliver Twist might has said "Please sir, may I have some more?
" It was just to cute--they were so excited we allowed them to get a new worm. 5. The Surgeon--very bright kid--never does his homework---skips a lot--does well on tests--has to maintain thug appearance---did the best dissection of a earthworm I have ever seen. The boy has the hands of a surgeon for sure-----
