The "curse", as I refer to it, appeared nearly 10 years ago. I awoke with a fat lip that looked like someone just punched me in the mouth. It was swollen. It itched. It was ugly! Somewhat anxious, and knowing that I would have to face 25 10 year-olds within the hour, I showered, got dressed and headed out the door.
That 15 minute drive was spent thinking of an excuse to tell my students... who don't miss a thing... especially if their teacher shows up at school with a new "facial".
"I bumped into a wall."
"My dog jumped on my lap and pawed me on the lip."
Or, "I woke up this morning with a fat lip, and I have no idea what this is. Why don't you write a journal entry and tell me what you think happened boys and girls."
Always looking for that teaching moment.
I pulled into the parking lot about 20 minutes before the bell. J.B., his two siblings and mom pulled up right next to me. I gathered my previous night's homework from the back seat, and as I turned toward mom to greet her, J.B. got a quick glance. His eyes widened, and with mouth agape, he ran across the parking lot yelling, "Hey Chuck, check out Mr. L's lip. He got punched or something."
