Journal #10

Mr. Langley, I believe it is beneficial for both students and faculty if you were to bring in Brach's Star Brites mints next class. This would benefit our learning environment for several reasons. The first benefit of bringing in mints is it gives the students something to look forward to. We follow a strict schedule of school every day, every week, every year. Anything out of the ordinary or special that breaks this pattern will be very appreciated. Doing something like this is just another way to show us that you care about us. It lets us know that you are thinking about us and admire our hard work. Rewarding your students every now and then is something everyone can benefit from and all teachers should take note.

If you bring in Brach's Star Brites mints next class, you will not only show your students you care about them, but it will also create a healthier environment. Everyone has those days when you just do not feel like getting out of bed. It is Monday morning, and you have a long week ahead of you. Failing to wake up to your alarm, you find yourself rushing to get out the door to get to school on time. In doing this, you forget to brush your teeth. Gross. You have now gone almost ten hours without treating your mouth with proper care. You roll into second hour English, where the lesson plan for class is to have a group discussion. Because of your bad breath, your fellow students are now distracted. Instead of listening to your insightful perspective of The Crucible , they are too busy focusing on your morning breath. What a shame. This is unfortunate for both your fellow students and yourself.

Now Mr.Langley, you would not want your students to be distracted from learning would you? Of course not. Please do us all a favor, and bring in Brach's Star Brites mints next class. You will not only gain the affection of your students, but also set us up for a successful class in a healthy learning environment.
