Your teacher,
Mrs. Eads
i would rather be the teacher instead of a student because if I was the teacher I would be able to tell people what to do. Also, I would get to make learning fun! Although if your a student you would have to learn and you would have to sit still an listen to the teacher.That is why I would rather be a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the teacher than the student. I chose this because then I could TEACH the class. Also, I would get a good teacher's salary. ($$$) However, some people may want to be the student because you would learn a lot. But I think that being the teacher would be fun, because I would be the nice teacher. This is why I would rather be the teacher than the student.
ReplyDeleteI would be a teacher because I could, be in charge,and I could see the difference. I could also have fun teaching.Some may argue to be a student because you don't have to wake up really early.I would choose to be a teacher
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student and here are my reasons why. 1st I could be a 10 year old and be crazy, I could have recess all day, and last I could dunk in the student teacher basketball game. Although some may prefer to be a student I would be a teacher because I love recess and could have it all day! This is why I choose What I choose on this would you rather.
ReplyDeleteI would much rather be the teacher. I would be able to let the students do whatever they want. I would be able to let my students have recess half the day. However, some people may think being a student is better. These are my reasons why I would rather be a teacher than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher over a student because of many different reasons.
ReplyDeleteOne, I would get to do whatever I wanted with the kids! Second, I could be a super fun teacher and have dance parties, and invite the kids to my house for a pool party. Lastly, if I were the teacher I could organize the day I would choose to get all the learning knocked out, I would read lots of books aloud to them and then play the rest of the day!
However some people may say being the student is better because you get to do the activities.
I would rather be the teacher than the student but no matter how many teaching classes I took I could never be as good as Mrs.Eads!
I would rather be a teacher. 1 reason is that I could have lots of parties.You may chose to be a student so you won't have to grade anything, but I would have the students grade their own homework. Another reason is that I could read stories to kids and show them my favorite books. When the went to P.E. I would go to the teachers lounge and enjoy the food. This is why I would be a teacher.
ReplyDeleteOn 1 of the sentences are supposed to say When the kids went to P.E..
DeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student. I would be able to teach people what they need to learn. One reason is that you would have tons of books to read. You would also have your own room that you could decorate how you would want it. However, some people would rather be a student than a teacher because they could learn stuff instead of learning everything a teacher should know. Also, if you are a teacher you would've already been a student. I would rather be a teacher than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the teacher than the student. If I were a teacher I would give the class more recess so I could chat with the other teachers. I would use money from my teacher budget to buy fun things that the kids could use. I would let them grade their writing projects based on how good they think it is. However, some people may want to be a student so they didn’t have to grade students work. That would be good. Even knowing that I would rather be a teacher than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the teacher because I could make the students have really long recesses if they want it. Also, I would have a party everyday. Thirdly I would teach the students what they wanted to be taught. Some people may say that being the student is better because you don’t have to set up your classroom during summer but, you still have to learn. I would want to be the teacher for many different reasons including the ones above.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student. If I were a teacher, I would have reclining first class seats at every desk. There would be a free vending machine where the students can get snacks or drinks. Also, during lunch you could order anything from anywhere that you want to eat. Every thing we learned would be a game. We would watch movies about what we are learning. Test would be actually fun! Finally, we would watch movies during lunch. Although I would rather be a teacher, some may want to be the student. If I were in my class, I would want to be the student! If I were a teacher it would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher because I am the boss of the classroom,I would not teach the kids to learn that much,and make drinks blow up. Some people might think being a student is better because they can have fun but I would still want to be a teacher because you will be the boss of the classroom,I would not teach the kids to learn that much just have fun, and make drinks explode.
ReplyDeleteI would want to be a teacher because you could have fun all day every day. You could have recess all day long. You could play capture the flag, basketball, football, and many other fun activities. If you wanted somebody on your team you could pick teams and get them. However, people might want to not take a chance at getting fired, but you could be young and the principal could be young and you could play sports all day. I could dunk on people in a student teacher basketball game. It would be awesome to be a teacher ‘cause it would be fun.
ReplyDeleteI would be a teacher because I would love teaching kids and playing with kids. You can teach and play educating games. However, people might say that being a student is better but being a teacher you can have a job and you do it because you love it.You also do it because you help kids learn. That is why I would like to be a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student. One reason is that I could control the volume of the class. Two more reasons are that you can go in the teacher's lounge and drink coca-cola, sprite, and dr. pepper, also you can . However some people may think being a student is better because you can get into trouble a lot, but if you were a teacher you can be the better person and make the students not get in trouble, and also if they keep on doing it you can stop them. So that’s why I think being a teacher is better.
ReplyDeleteI would much rather be a teacher! If you were a teacher you could have access to the teachers lounge, you could wear whatever you want, and you could even get days off when you wanted to, and just call a substitute. If you were a student you would always have to to school and you would not get to get food from the teachers lounge and you would have to wear a strict dress code. That is why I would rather be a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student because if I was a teacher I could boss my students around and do fun stuff with them. The second reason is I wouldn't have to do what anyone says (unless it's the principal). The third reason is I wouldn't have to learn anything. That is 3 reasons why I would like to be a teacher rather than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student because I have control over the little students, AHAH. Also, you know almost everything in the subject that you teach. Also, you get to be on your computer or phone while the students are doing a project. lastly, you do not have to do the work that the students have to do. Some people might want to be a student because the can play outside at recess,but why can't a teacher play at recess too!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I choose to be a teacher.
I would rather be a teacher than a student because if I was a teacher I could make school great again by giving a full day of recess! Second I could make the kids my servants and make them make me a ice cream sundae! Finally I could get sodas in the teacher's lounge! Some people would want to be a student but if you were a student you would have no freedom and you would learn all day��. I would much rather be a teacher than a student.��������
ReplyDeleteWould You Rather be a teacher or a student.
ReplyDeleteBeing a student is what almost everybody is. being a teacher is not every person in the world like a student.
Being a student would be O.K and Boring. You would math, reading, writing, or science in one day.
If you were a teacher you would Have one subject every day. You also get to teach it not learn because you are a smart and smart people can be teachers. Or you can be a non smart teacher and decide "hey everybody recess is all we have." not fun. I chose being a students.
I would rather be a teacher than a student.I could get people in trouble if they are bad.I could also tell the children everything I know.I could also be the best teacher ever.Some people might say being a student is better because they could have fun with the teacher.I say it’s not because if you are a teacher you can control the classroom and make sure everything is nice.This is why I chose being a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a student. Here are my reasons why. We get to see our friends every day. We get to play at recess which is better than being at home watching TV by yourself in my opinion. Also we can learn cool things in science and Social studies. Some people would rather be teachers because they would not have to do homework or have to take tests, but they do not really get as of brakes of school because they have to prepare for when the students get back from their school brake. Those are my reasons.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the student and here are my reasons why...
ReplyDeleteSince you are the student you get to and experience learning, but if you were the teacher you would have to reteach everything over and over. Also, the students get to go on fun field trips every year but the teacher has to go back to the same place. However, some may say being the teacher is better because you already know all of the learning, but if you are the student you get to have RECESS!!! This is why I'd be the student.
Really good reasons!!!!
DeleteI would rather be a student over being a teacher. One reason is that students get to go to P.E and recess, but teachers would have to working on tomorrow's lesson. Another reason is students get a summer break, but teachers are still working on their classroom and next year lessons. Lastly, students don’t have to plan anything or have to worry about a meeting in front of the principal. Some may argue that they would rather be a teacher because you don’t have to learn, but most of the time as a student the lessons are really fun. All these reasons are why I would rather be a student.
ReplyDeleteWould you Rather Part 11
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a student than a teacher. First, being a teacher is hard. You always have to get kids to quiet down. By the end of the day, you’re worn out. Second, being a student, you get privileges. You get to walk down the hall by yourself. Though being a teacher you get tons of privileges. Last but not least, you have to go to extra school. Some people might want to do that, but not me. Also, you usually have to work on Sunday. Some people might want to be the teacher because you are the leader, but not me. That is why I would rather be a student than a teacher.
I would rather be the teacher. First because you could control the kids. Second you could be the worst teacher and give kids candy and let them watch movies the whole day. Third you could play with the kids on the playground. Some may say that being a student is better because you more energy, but you could get your energy on the way to the teachers getting a soda. That is why I would rather be a teacher than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher. For example, I would get to be in charge. Also, I could have more privileges. I could also get to go to the teacher’s lounge. However, some people want to be a student, but I still think a teacher would be better. These are my reasons why a teacher is better.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the teacher. Because, I could bring soft drinks while I teach, I could sit, and do other things while the kids do work, and I would be in charge of everyone in the classroom. However, some may prefer to be the student because, they would not have to leave breaks early, They would not have to stay after school late, and they would not have to be the center of attention. Although some may prefer otherwise , I would still prefer to be the teacher because, you could bring soft drinks to school, I would not have homework, and I would be in charge of the classroom. I would much prefer to be the teacher!
ReplyDeleteI would rather be the teacher rather than the student. Here’s why, first, you could go to the teachers’ lounge when your class had an enrichment. Second, if you had kid like traits, you could go to the teachers’ lounge and pick up a few Cokes for your class. Finally, If you had nothing after recess, you could make recess longer and play. Now some people would rather be the student than be the teacher. But you don’t have to learn at all if you’re a teacher. This was an easy Would You Rather
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student because then I could boss the class around and torture them. JK! I could make up the homework and make it fun. I could also play games and give them less homework. While other people might want to be the student and not have to grade papers, I would want to be the teacher because I would make the tests easy. That is why I would rather be a teacher than a student.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a teacher than a student, because i could boss kids around, and go to the teachers lounge,also I could get paid. Some may say that a student is better, but if you are a teacher you can make kids do homework. All these reasons are why I would be a teacher.
