Phun Phriday Phun

Sometimes we just need to laugh.  Lately, I’ve been collecting a few things that make me smile, and I thought I’d share them in today’s Phun Phriday post.

The above quote was taken from a collection of submissions for a contest called, “What’s the Funniest Thing a Student Has Ever Said to You?”  I can’t attest to the validity of the site, but it offers Amazon gift cards as prizes for the best stories.  The deadline for entering is 3/19/14.

Many of you have already seen this video that offers a unique way to announce school closures, but I’m going to embed it below anyway.  I’ve watched it five times and can’t stop laughing.  If you like this one, you might want to also check out the “Ice, Ice, Baby” announcement, too.

Then, there’s the breakdancing teacher

You might be amused and amazed by the Tumblr of Meghan Coleman, who is on a quest to create new balloon sculptures each day for a year.

And, last but not least, if you are feeling the need to geek out a bit while you smile, here is The Periodic Table of Super-Powers (I’m pretty sure I can live without Af, but I think  I wouldn’t mind a bit of Lc.)  If you use the symbols to spell out “Teacher”, you get:

Te – Teleportation

A – Alien

Ch – Chemicals

E – Elemental

R – Royalty

I’ll let you reach your own conclusions about that…
