...chalk...


It's the start of a memorable new year at Harrison High. The self-conscious Mr. Stroope is convinced that his time has come - this year he will be furnished with the golden title of "Teacher of the Year," if only his smarter students would stop using words that he can't understand.Peek into Mr. Lowrey's History class and we will know that he's struggling to even call himself a teacher. Woefully, due to a complete lack of experience and social skills, he earnestly stutters his way through class. The only interaction his students offer him is when they steal his chalk. Men aren't much interested in the spunky and officious Coach Webb, but "not all P.E. teachers are gay" and she pines for some romantic company. Her once best friend, the newly appointed assistant principal, Mrs. Reddell, doesn't seem to have time for her either..this story is moving from the point of view of the educators! it told us story of life in the trenches of that most honorable and frustrating profession...teaching..

from this movie, we can see that being a teacher is not an easy job to do. and all the teachers, are different in their own ways. :)

  1. greetings,
    I agree with you on being at teacher is not an easy job. Other than the problem in classroom and teaching, the teacher also faces the challenge in maintaining the relationship with other teachers for example the P.E teacher and Mrs. Reddell.

  2. I do agree when you said that being a teacher is not an easy job. As a teacher, we're not only have to handle the students but also have to deal with the other teachers. Why? As you said, all the teachers all different in their own ways.
