Think, Pair, Swear
Carrie
Anticipatory Set: What are the ten types of problematic parents schools face? And who knew there were just ten and not two hundred? Stories are shared including a parent whose daughter battles raccoons in a crawlspace. How does one best handle these hot messes? Strategies are offered, ridiculed and refined.
Getting Schooled: How many dirty pillows in one high school locker room hold? How many times can Miss Collins slap students and not get fired? How many candles can one household need? Too many. Too, too many. Justin gets an education on 70s camp and 70s bush. Ronnie has an evangelical trauma response to Mrs. White’s obsession with the smell of her daughter. They both have whiplash from the soundtrack’s twists, turns and bizarre choices. And in the end it doesn't’ take an arm grab to learn this valuable lesson: don’t bully the mousy girl with telekinetic powers.
Exit Ticket: A department chair is being bullied by members of her team and needs advice. She doesn’t say she has telekinetic powers, so some other advice is offered. Justin offers some expertise on the administration side while Ronnie’s is based in ptsd.
